I am the wind，the gentle wind; I am the clouds，the slow，drifting clouds; I am the water，the silent water; I am the mountains，the boundless mountains… If you so want，I will be the gentle wind that will wrap around your lonely spirit! If you so desire，I will be the slow，drifting clouds that will unquestioningly be your support! If you so wish，I will be that silent water，without a murmur，protecting you by your side. If you so will，I will love you unrelentingly，just like those boundless，unbroken mountain ranges and valleys! But，I regret I am not the wind and not able to take care of you. I hate that I am not the clouds and not able to bring you warmth; I pity myself that I am not the water and not able to be so pure; I am angry that I am not the mountains and not able to have my love will be as immovable as I would like. I can only be myself this time，my mortal，earthly self，my only self，the only self that I can ever hope to be. I thirst for love but I do not understand her deep mystery. I strive for transcendence but I would rather be silent and nameless. I want to be mature but I would rather remain innocent. I would like that she love me，but I do not know even if I truly love her! Endless searching，thirsting，striving，pursuing-where are my goals? Where is my future? In this mundane world，I am one lonely speck; in this universe I am a powerless particle of dust. My love，thought beautiful，is nothing great in itself. And so，I ask only to live as well as I can. In truth，there is no need to live one‘s life basking in glory，rising above men—— so long as one’s life has some value，has some security… Fearless and capricious，love will cause me great pain. Youth，transient and inconstant，will bring me loneliness. Work，busy and mindless，will make me lost. I am just searching for and waiting for some of that which shines，that which is radiant in life…

我是风，悄悄的风;我是云，慢慢的云;我是水，静静的水;我是山，连绵的山…… 假如你情愿，我愿做那悄悄的风抚慰着你寂寞的心灵!假如你情愿，我就是那慢慢的云沉着地让你依偎!假如你情愿，我来做你身边静静的水默默地将你守护!假如你情愿，我将会不懈地爱你就象那连绵不时的山川! 我悔我不是风，由于我不够体恤;我恨我不是云，由于我不够温顺;我怨我不是水，由于我不够明澈;我怒我不是山，由于我的爱不够坚决…… 我只能做回本人，伟大的本人，独一的本人，寻求中的本人。我盼望爱情但是却不懂她的深奥，我向往不伟大但是却甘愿默默无名。我追求成熟但是我宁愿单纯。我但愿她能喜欢我，但是我又不晓得我能否喜欢她。寻求，盼望，向往，追求，哪里是我的目的和将来…… 俗人间我是孤单的一粒，宇宙间我是有为的尘埃，我的爱虽然美妙，但并不伟大…… 所以我只是想好好的活着…… 其实人生未必要过的轰轰烈烈，高人一等，。只需过的有价值，活的很踏实…… 无畏的爱，会让我很苦楚;悸动的青春，会让我很寂寞;繁忙的任务，会让我容易迷茫…… 我只是在寻觅，我亦是在等候英文散文朗读4篇。生命中的灿烂光芒……

英语朗读短文1-3分钟范二

Think about the last time you felt a negative emotion---like stress, anger, or frustration. What was going through your mind as you were going through that negativity? Was your mind cluttered with thoughts? Or was it paralyzed, unable to think?

The next time you find yourself in the middle of a very stressful time, or you feel angry or frustrated, stop. Yes, that’s right, stop. Whatever you’re doing, stop and sit for one minute. While you’re sitting there, completely immerse yourself in the negative emotion.

Allow that emotion to consume you. Allow yourself one minute to truly feel that emotion. Don’t cheat yourself here. Take the entire minute---but only one minute---to do nothing else but feel that emotion.

When the minute is over, ask yourself, “Am I wiling to keep holding on to this negative emotion as I go through the rest of the day?”

Once you’ve allowed yourself to be totally immersed in the emotion and really fell it, you will be surprised to find that the emotion clears rather quickly.

If you feel you need to hold on to the emotion for a little longer, that is OK. Allow yourself another minute to feel the emotion.

When you feel you’ve had enough of the emotion, ask yourself if you’re willing to carry that negativity with you for the rest of the day. If not, take a deep breath. As you exhale, release all that negativity with your breath.

This exercise seems simple---almost too simple. But, it is very effective. By allowing that negative emotion the space to be truly felt, you are dealing with the emotion rather than stuffing it down and trying not to feel it. You are actually taking away the power of the emotion by giving it the space and attention it needs. When you immerse yourself in the emotion, and realize that it is only emotion, it loses its control. You can clear your head and proceed with your task.

Try it. Next time you’re in the middle of a negative emotion, give yourself the space to feel the emotion and see what happens. Keep a piece of paper with you that says the following:

Stop. Immerse for one minute. Do I want to keep this negativity? Breath deep, exhale, release. Move on!

This will remind you of the steps to the process. Remember; take the time you need to really immerse yourself in the emotion. Then, when you feel you’ve felt it enough, release it---really let go of it. You will be surprised at how quickly you can move on from a negative situation and get to what you really want to do!

译文：

清算心灵的空间

想下你最近一次感遭到的消极心情，例如压力，愤恨或波折。当你处于那种消极心情时你在想些什么?是充溢了混乱的思绪?还是陷于麻痹，无法考虑?

下次当你发现本人处于十分紧张的形态时，或是你感到愤慨或受挫时，停上去。是的，对，停上去。不论你在做什么，停上去坐上一分钟。坐着的时分，让本人完全沉溺在那种消极心情之中。

让那种消极心情吞噬你，给本人一分钟的工夫去逼真地领会那种心情，不要诈骗本人。花整整一分钟的工夫 – 但只要一分钟 – 去领会那种心情，别的什么也不要做。

当一分钟完毕时，问本人：“我能否想在明天余下的工夫里持续坚持这种消极心情?”

一旦你允许本人完全沉溺在那种心情当中并逼真领会到它，你就会惊奇地发现那种心情很快就消逝了。

假如你觉得还需求点工夫来坚持那种心情，没关系，再给本人一分钟的工夫去领会它。

假如你觉得本人曾经充沛领会了那种心情，那就问本人能否情愿在明天余下的工夫里持续坚持这种消极心情。假如不情愿，那就深呼吸。呼气的时分，把一切的消极心情都释放出去。

这个办法似乎很复杂 – 简直是太过复杂了，但却十分无效。经过给本人空间真正领会消极心情，你是在处置这种心情，而不是将其压制下去然后尽量不加理睬。经过给予消极心情所需的空间和关注，你实践上是在消解其力气。当你沉溺在那种心情之中，并且明白它只是一种心情时，你就摆脱了它的控制。你可以清算头脑并持续做事。

你下次覆盖消极心情时，试一下这种做法，给本人一点空间来领会那种心情并看看会发作什么。随身带一张写着如下字句的纸条：

停上去。沉溺一分钟。我想坚持这种消极心情吗?深吸气，呼气，抓紧。持续做事!

这会提示你该怎样去做。记住，要花你所需求的工夫去真正沉溺于那种心情之中。然后，当你感到本人曾经充沛领会到了它。你会惊奇地发现，你很快就能摆脱消极心情，并开始做你真正想做的事情!

英语短文

普通来说英语短文词数在一千以内，相似于小杂文，随笔。以以下10篇为例。

1．Learning：A Lifelong Career 【学习：终身的事业（学习无尽头，只要努力，努力，再努力，才会成功）】

As food is to the body, so is learning to the mind. Our bodies grow and muscles develop with the intake of adequate nutritious food. Likewise, we should keep learning day by day to maintain our keen mental power and expand our intellectual capacity. Constant learning supplies us with inexhaustible fuel for driving us to sharpen our power of reasoning, analysis, and judgment. Learning incessantly is the surest way to keep pace with the times in the information age, and an infallible warrant of success in times of uncertainty. Once learning stops, vegetation sets in. It is a common fallacy to regard school as the only workshop for the acquisition of knowledge. On the contrary, learning should be a never-ending process, from the cradle to the grave. With the world ever changing so fast, the cease from learning for just a few days will make a person lag behind. What's worse, the animalistic instinct dormant deep in our subconsciousness will come to life, weakening our will to pursue our noble ideal, sapping our determination to sweep away obstacles to our success and strangling our desire for the refinement of our character. Lack of learning will inevitably lead to the stagnation of the mind, or even worse, its fossilization, Therefore, to stay mentally young, we have to take learning as a lifelong career. 学习之于心灵，就像食物之于身体一样。摄取了过量的养分食物，我们的身体得以生长而肌肉得以兴旺。异样地，我们应该日复一日不时地学习以坚持我们敏锐的心智才能，并扩大我们的智力容量。不时的学习提供我们用不尽的燃料，来驱使我们磨利我们的推理、剖析和判别的才能。继续的学习是在信息时代中跟时代不相上下的最稳妥的办法，也是在变化的世代中成功的牢靠保证。 一旦学习中止，单调贫乏的生活就开始了。视学校为吸取知识的独一场所是种罕见的错误。相反地，学习应该是一种无终止的历程，从生到死。由于世界不断疾速地在变化，只需学习进展数日就将使人落后。更糟的是，冬眠在我们潜认识深处的人性天性就会复生，减弱我们追求高贵理想的意志，弱化我们扫除成功妨碍的决计，而且扼杀我们污染我们人格的愿望。短少学习将不可防止地招致心灵的停滞，甚至更糟地，使其僵化。因而，为了坚持心思年老，我们必需将学习当作终身的事业。

2．heavy schoolwork

【课业繁重】 In my opinion, the schoolwork now being assigned to high school students is too heavy. While it is true that students need to study, they need other things as well if they are to grow into healthy and well-rounded adults. High school students should be allowed more time for play. Playing is not wasting time, as some think. It gives them physical exercise, and also exercises their imagination. Which tends to be stifled by too much study. Finally, the pressure put on high school students by excessive schoolwork can cause serious stress, which is unhealthy physically and mentally. I do not advocate the elimination of schoolwork. I do think, however, that a reduction of the current heavy load would be beneficial to students and to the society as a whole. 我以为目前高中生的课业真实太重了，虽然说先生确实该当念书，但是要想长大成为健全的人，他门还需求一些其它的东西，所以应该给高中生较多从事文娱的工夫。文娱并不如某些人所想的，是在糜费工夫，它可以让先生锤炼身体，发扬被繁重课业扼杀的想象力。最初，繁重的课业加诸在高中生身上的压力能够惹起严重的心情紧张，这对身心都无害。我并非主张废弃学校课业，但是我以为加重目前繁重的课业关于先生和整个社会都是无益的。

3．Time

【工夫】 Lost time is never found again. This is something which I learned very clearly last semester. I spent so much time fooling around that my grades began to suffer. I finally realized that something had to be done. It was time for a change. Now I have a new plan for using my time wisely. I have set my alarm clock ahead half an hour. This will give me a head start on the day. I have also decided to keep a log of what I do and when I do it. Looking back on what I’ve done will give me some ideas on how to reorganize my time. 光阴一去不复返，这是我上学期清楚学到的经验。我糜费更多工夫四处游荡，致使于我的分数成绩开始退步。最初我终于理解到我必需有所作为；该是改过自新的时分了。 如今我有一个明智运用工夫的新办法。我已将闹钟早拨半小时，这将使我这一天的作息提早开始。我也决议将我所做的一切及做这些事的工夫记载上去。回忆我所做的事情会启示我如何重新布置我的工夫。

4．Work and Play

【任务与文娱】 Work and play do not contradict each other; in fact, they complement each other. As the saying goes, "All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy." A life burdened with work leads you nowhere, for you would get tired and bored with your daily routine work. On the other hand, proper recreation will relieve the tension and discomfort of our monotonous life because it offers you various ways to let out your pent-up emotions. What I usually do to relax after school is jogging and watching movies. Usually I don't spare time for exercise, but I value the physical education class at school. Jogging several rounds in the field certainly relieves the day's pressure. On weekends, I'll catch the morning movie for my visual enjoyment. I feel revived and energetic for another week's work-load. 任务与文娱并不相互抵触，现实上，它们之间的关系还相反相成。有句格言说：「整日任务而没有休闲文娱，会令人变得活跃有趣。」被任务重担压得喘不过气来的生活，将使你一事无成，由于你将对原封不动的例行私事感到腻烦。由另一方面来说，过度的文娱活动能提供各种管道，来渲泄你被压制的心情，加重单调生活中的紧张与不悦。 放学之后，我最常做的休闲活动，便是慢跑与看电影。通常我并不特别拨出工夫来做运动，但是我很注重学校的体育课。在操场上慢跑几圈，无疑地可以加重一天的压力。在周末时，我都去看夜场电影，享用视觉盛宴。如此一来，我将有如再生般的充分生机，去面对下一星期的任务量。

5．My first Job

【我的第一份任务】 My first job was at a cramming school. It was three years ago when I just graduated from junior high school and finished the entrance examination. since I had nothing to do that summer, I decided to find a job, tasting the joy of independence. I was responsible for answering the telephone and taking the message. I worked eight hours a day, six days a week. The work was not difficult nor heavy to me and I guess I did well. The most delighted thing was perhaps that I could spend the money I earned all by myself. 我的第一份任务是在一家补习班做事。那是三年前我刚从国中毕业，考完联考时的事了。既然我那整个夏天都闲着没事，倒不如找份差事，尝尝独立赚钱的高兴。 我担任接听电话且纪录留言的任务。我一天任务八小时，一星期任务六天。那份任务对我而言既不困难亦不繁重，所以我想我还满称职的。而最令人高兴的事大约莫过于花全部由本人赚来的钱了！

6．My Favorite Sports

【我最喜欢的运动】 Sports help everyone to keep healthy, happy, and efficient. So I pay special attention to games, especially table-tennis. Table tennis is my favorite game. I play it almost every day. Table-tennis is an ideal game for us because it brings the whole body into action. It strengthens our muscles, expands our lungs, promotes the circulation of the blood, and causes a healthy action of the skin. Besides, it is very amusing and does not cost us much money. Table-tennis is very moderate; it is not so rough as football. It is an indoor game and can be played even on rainy days. Thus, it is my favorite kind of exercise. 运动能协助每一团体坚持安康、高兴和无效率。所以我特别注重运动，特别是乒乓球，乒乓球是我最喜欢的运动。我简直每天玩。 乒乓球对我们而言，是一项理想的运动，由于它可以使我们全身运动，它可以加强我们的肌肉，扩张我们的肺部，促进血液循环，并且使肌肤发生安康作用，此外，它很风趣而且所费不多。乒乓球是相当平和适中的，它不像足球那么粗野。它是一种室内运动，甚至在下雨天也能玩。因而，乒乓球是我最喜欢的一种运动。

7．Fox and cock

【狐狸和公鸡】 One morning a fox saw a cock.He thought,"This is my breakfast.'' He came up to the cock and said,"I know you can sing very well.Can you sing for me?''The cock was glad.He closes his eyes and began to sing.The fox saw that and caught him in his mouth and carried him away. The people in the field saw the fox.They cried,"Look,look!The fox is carrying the cock away.'' The cock said to the fox,"Mr Fox,do you understand?The people say you are carrying their cock away.Tell them it is yours.Not theirs.'' The fox opened his mouth and said,"The cock is mine,not yours.''Just then the cock ran away from the fox and fled into the tree. 一天早上，一只狐狸看到了一只公鸡。他想：这是我的早餐。 他朝公鸡走来，对他说：“我晓得，你能唱得十分难听，你能唱给我听么？”公鸡很快乐。他闭上眼睛开始唱歌。狐狸看到这些抓住它放到本人的嘴里走了。 在田地里的人们看到了狐狸。大喊大叫：“看，看！狐狸抓住公鸡逃走了。”公鸡对狐狸说：“狐狸先生，你能了解么？人们以为你叼走了公鸡。通知他们这是你的，不是他们的。” 狐狸张开她的嘴说：“公鸡是我的，不是你们的。”就在那时，公鸡逃离了狐狸的嘴巴，跑到了树底下。

8．The City Mouse and the Country Mouse

【城里老鼠和乡下老鼠】 Once there were two mice. They were friends. One mouse lived in the country; the other mouse lived in the city. After many years the Country mouse saw the City mouse; he said, "Do come and see me at my house in the country." So the City mouse went. The City mouse said, "This food is not good, and your house is not good. Why do you live in a hole in the field? You should come and live in the city. You would live in a nice house made of stone. You would have nice food to eat. You must come and see me at my house in the city." The Country mouse went to the house of the City mouse. It was a very good house. Nice food was set ready for them to eat. But just as they began to eat they heard a great noise. The City mouse cried, " Run! Run! The cat is coming!" They ran away quickly and hid. After some time they came out. When they came out, the Country mouse said, "I do not like living in the city. I like living in my hole in the field. For it is nicer to be poor and happy, than to be rich and afraid." 从前，有两只老鼠，它们是好冤家。一只老鼠寓居在乡村，另一只住在城里。更多年当前，乡下老鼠碰到城里老鼠，它说：“你一定要来我乡下的家看看。”于是，城里老鼠就去了。乡下老鼠领着它到了一块田地上它本人的家里。它把一切最精巧食物都找出来给城里老鼠。城里老鼠说：“这东西不好吃，你的家也不好，你为什么住在田野的地洞里呢？你应该搬到城里去住，你能住上用石头造的美丽房子，还会吃上美味佳肴，你应该到我城里的家看看。” 乡下老鼠就到城里老鼠的家去。房子非常美丽，好吃的东西也为他们摆好了。可是合理他们要开始吃的时分，听见很大的一阵响声，城里的老鼠叫喊起来：“快跑！快跑！猫来了！”他们飞快地跑开躲藏起来。 过了一会儿，他们出来了。当他们出来时，乡下老鼠说：“我不喜欢住在城里，我喜欢住在田野我的洞里。由于这样虽然贫穷但是高兴自由，比起虽然富有却要过着提心吊胆的生活来说，要好些。”

9.A sense of humor,God's greatest gift to mankind, is universally considered the most valuable personality asset. It is born within every person's heart, but has to be cultivated. A person without humor is just like a spring without flowers, or like a dish without seasoning. In a sense, your personality lies in your sense of humor. Humor can enhance physical as well as mental well-being. It helps us bear our burdens, lessen our tension, overcome our frustration, and dissolve countless trifles and irritations. With a crack of joke, all our worries and sadness disperse like mist and smoke, and we are full of vim and vigor once again. Humor helps us live in harmony with others. It is unavoidable to have misunderstanding and tension with others during work and study. But humor can, as a "pacifier", inject a light note into the touchy situation to ease these problems quicher than angry words or quarrels. With it you can always keep on good terms with others. A sense of humor is really one of the keys to happiness. It gives fun and zest to life to make it worth living.

10.The Importance of Confidence

Whatever one does, one should do it with confidence. If one has no confidence, there is little possibility that one can achieve anything when faced with hardships. This truth seems to be self-evident. In reality, however, we do see a lot of people who always complain that they lack the ability to do something or that their difficulties are too great to overcome. For some, this might be true. But for many others, this only shows that they have lost heart. Why do some people often feel frustrated even though they are capable of doing something? In the first place, these people don’t have a correct estimate of themselves. Secondly, there is another possibility that they exaggerate the difficulties.

我是初三的一名先生，英语还算可以，不过下降了。你这种状况我可以给一些建议，就是你多看单词，把单词会读而且熟读，并且会写，这样才会对英语发生最根本的兴味，在就是当教师讲一些语法时分，要仔细听，记笔记，不懂得本人要重复举例子，直至会了为止。还要多听，才干在听力上得好分。阅读题不要灰心，要多做，不时进步速度。在生活中可以用一些复杂的英语，进步英语口语才能。课后多做一些练习，至于能学得更好，还得靠本人，找到合适本人的发那个发就可以。
