雙語閱讀：今生只有你不可取代

　　以下是學(xué)習(xí)啦小編整理的哲理類英語美文欣賞：今生只有你不可取代， 希望對你有所感觸。

　　As a teenager，I felt I was always letting people down. I was rebellious1 out-side，but I wantedto be liked inside.

　　當(dāng)我還是個10幾歲的少年的時候，覺得自己總是讓人失望。從外表上看，我似乎很叛逆，但是在內(nèi)心深處，我是如此地渴望被人疼愛。

　　Once I left home to hitch-hike2 to California with my friend Penelope. The trip wasn't easy，andthere were many times I didn't feel safe. One situation in particular kept me grateful to still bealive. When I returned home，I was different，not so outwardly sure of myself.

　　有一次我離開了家和我的朋友佩內(nèi)洛普搭便車去了加利福尼亞。這次旅行并不輕松，而且有很多次我感覺不安。有一次的突發(fā)狀況讓我一直慶幸自己還活著。回到家，我發(fā)覺自己變了，看上去不那么自信了。

　　I was happy to be home. But then I noticed that Penelope，who was staying with us，waswearing my clothes. And my family seemed to like her better than me. I wondered if I would bemissed if I weren't there. I told my mom，and she explained that though Penelope was a lovelygirl，no one could replace me. I pointed out，"She is more patient and is neater than I haveever been." My mom said these were wonderful qualities，but I was the only person who couldfill my role. She made me realize that even with my faults-and there were many-I was a lovedmember of the family who couldn't be replaced.

　　我很高興能回到家，但不久我注意到和我們一起的佩內(nèi)洛普穿著我的衣服，而且我父母看上去更喜歡她，我想知道如果我不在家的話他們是否會想念我。后來，我把我的想法告訴了母親，她說盡管佩內(nèi)洛普是個可愛的女孩，但她始終不能取代我，我說："她比我有耐心而且無論何時看上去她都比我要整潔大方。"母親說這些都是非常好的優(yōu)點，但我卻是惟一個能扮演好自己角色的人。母親讓我感到盡管我有缺點——似乎還很多——但是，我被家中每一個人愛著，誰也無法取代。

　　I became a searcher，wanting to find out who I was and what made me unique. My view ofmyself was changing. I wanted a solid base to start from. I started to resist3 pressure to actin ways that I didn't like any more，and I was delighted by who I really was. I came to feel muchmore sure that no one can ever take my place.

　　我成了一個探尋者，想要知道自己到底是誰，又是什么讓我變得獨一無二。我的人生觀開始改變。我需要一個堅固的基礎(chǔ)來發(fā)展，我忍受住壓力，不再做自己不喜歡做的事。而且我為真實的我感到高興。漸漸地我越發(fā)肯定自己無可替代。

　　Each of us holds a unique place in the world. You are special，no matter what others say orwhat you may think. So forget about being replaced. You can't be.

　　每個人在這個世界上都占有一個獨一無二的位置。無論別人說什么，你自己怎么想，你都是特別的。所以，不要擔(dān)心自己會被取代，因為你永遠(yuǎn)是惟一的。
