英語(yǔ)哲理短文：注意教訓(xùn)

　　短文用詩(shī)的形式講述了一個(gè)又一個(gè)淺顯卻又真實(shí)的道理:世界上每個(gè)人都能教會(huì)你一些東西;微笑和眼淚的區(qū)別;夢(mèng)想的作用等。關(guān)注這些經(jīng)驗(yàn)或教訓(xùn),體會(huì)它們的經(jīng)典之處。

　　1. 把句子拆分成兩個(gè)句子就不難理解了:"I have a friend. Every time I had a problem or minor crisis, he would say —"。

　　2. for表示原因,hidden是"hide"的過(guò)去分詞。

　　*****英語(yǔ)哲理短文：注意教訓(xùn)Focus on the Lesson*****

　　I have a friend who every time

　　I had a problem or minor crisis would say —1

　　"Focus on the lesson.

　　Ask yourself what I am being shown here."

　　Every person in his life has something to teach me —

　　and as soon as I accept that,

　　I open myself to truly listening.

　　For everyone that makes you cry,

　　there are three that make you smile,

　　And a smile will last a long, long time,

　　but a tear for just a little while.

　　Don’t let someone who hates the world

　　cause you to hate it too.

　　Behind the clouds is a golden sun,

　　and a sky that’s full of blue. If someone says a thing that’s cruel,

　　don’t let it get to you.

　　Your achievements are greatly numbered,

　　and your faults are very few.

　　So if a certain person should act a certain way,

　　Think of those who love you,

　　And don’t let it spoil your day!

　　Reach high, for stars lie hidden in your soul.2

　　Dream deep, for every dream precedes a goal.
