辛弃疾——《菩萨蛮》(2006-05-27 02:21:00)
摘要：
【年代】：宋【作者】：辛弃疾——《菩萨蛮》【内容】：
郁孤台下清江水，中间多少行人泪。西北望长安，可怜无数山。
青山遮不住，毕竟东流去。江晚正愁余，山深闻鹧鸪。
【作者】 辛弃疾（１１４０－１２０７），南宋词人。字幼安，号稼轩，历城（今山东济南）人。 出生时，山东已为金兵所占。二十一岁参加抗金义军，不久归南宋，历任湖北、江西、湖南、福建、浙东安抚使等职。任职期间，采取积极措施，招集流亡，训练军队，奖励耕战，打击贪污豪强，注意安定民生。一生坚决主张抗金。在《美芹十论》、《九议》等奏疏中，具体分析当时的政治军事形势，对夸大金兵力量、鼓吹妥协投降的谬论，作了有力的驳斥；要求加强作战准备，鼓励士气，以恢复中原。他所提出的抗金建议，均未被采纳，并遭到主和派的打击，曾长期落职闲居江西上饶、铅山一带。晚年韩□（ｔｕｏ１）胄当政，一度起用，不久病卒。 其词抒写力图恢复国家统一的爱国热情，倾诉壮志难酬的悲愤，对南宋上层统治集团的屈辱投降进行揭露和批判；也有不少吟咏祖国河山的作品。艺术风格多样，而以豪放为主。热情洋溢，慷慨悲壮，笔力雄厚，与苏轼并称为“苏辛”。《破阵子·为陈同甫赋壮词以寄之》、《永遇乐·京口北固亭怀古》、《水龙吟·登建康赏心亭》、《菩萨蛮·书江西造口壁》等均有名。但部分作品也流露出抱负不能实现而产生的消极情绪。有《稼轩长短句》。今人辑有《辛稼轩诗文钞存》。（《辞海》１９８９年版）
【注释】：造口：在今江西万安西南。郁孤台：在今江西赣州东南。清江：指赣江。长安：借指北宋都城汴京。愁余：使我忧愁。鹧鸪：俗谓鹧鸪鸣声为“行不得也哥哥”，比喻恢复中复无望。
【赏析】： 唐圭璋曰：“此首书江西造口壁，不假雕脍，自抒悲愤。小词而苍莽悲壮如此，诚不多见。盖以直情郁勃，而又有气魄足畅发其情。起从近处写水，次从远处写山。下片，将山水打成成一片，慨叹不尽。末以愁闻鹧鸪作结，尤觉无限悲愤。”（《唐宋词简释》）

李清照——《蝶恋花》(2006-05-27 02:20:00)
摘要：年代】：宋【作者】：李清照——《蝶恋花》【内容】：
泪湿罗衣脂粉满，四叠阳关，唱到千千遍。人道山长水又断，潇潇微雨闻孤馆。
惜别伤离方寸乱，忘了临行，酒盏深和浅，好把音书凭过雁，东莱不似蓬莱远。
【作者】： 李清照(1084-1155?)号易安居士，齐州章丘（今属山东济南）人，以词著称，有较高的艺术造诣。
父李格非为当时著名学者，夫赵明诚为金石考据家。早期生活优裕，与明诚共同致力于书画金石的搜集整理。金兵入据中原，流寓南方，明诚病死，境遇孤苦。所作词，前期多写其悠闲生活，后期多悲叹身世，情调感伤，有的也流露出对中原的怀念。形式上善用白描手法，自辟途径，语言清丽。论词强调协律，崇尚典雅、情致，提出词“别是一家”之说，反对以作诗文之法作词。并能诗，留存不多，部分篇章感时咏史，情辞慷慨，与其词风不同。有《易安居士文集》、《易安词》，已散佚。后人有《漱玉词》辑本。今人有《李清照集校注》。（《辞海》1989年版）
【注释】：湿：《花草粹编》作“揾”。罗：《翰墨大全》作“征”。满：《花草粹编》作“暖”。唱：《历代诗余》作：“听”。到：《花草粹编》作：“了”。山：《历代诗余》作：“水”。方寸：即“方寸地”，指人的心。好把：《花草粹编》作“若有”。东莱：即莱州，时为明诚守地。今山东莱州市。蓬莱：传说中的海上仙山名。
【赏析】： 黄盛璋《赵明诚、李清照夫妇年谱》认为“此词应是宣和三年（1121年）秋清照自青（州）赴莱（州）中途宿昌乐县之驿馆而作时间当在七八月间”。作者夜晚住在异地孤寂的驿馆里，伴着寒灯长夜不寐，这时隔窗传来唰唰的雨声，绵绵不已，更增加了心头的无限愁绪，不禁潸然泪下。作者用苍茫的远山和潇潇细雨构成一幅寥廓、迷茫、凄凉的画面，有力地烘托了黑夜孤馆女主人怅惘、悲伤、孤寂的心境。作者通过对姊妹惜别、孤馆夜宿、寄语姊妹的描写，表现了姊妹间感情的真挚深厚。语言朴实、通俗、清新，感情真切、细腻，具有很强的艺术感染力。......

The Many Faces of Love(2006-05-27 02:10:00)
摘要：Love.. what is love? A lot of people shared their views to what Love really is, or at least what Love is in their eyes. Perhaps love is just an illusion. A strong illusion, especially for those who are searching for a purpose of life. Is love an answer? Love can be wonderful, special, complicated, a distress, a gift, a curse, a tragedy, and most of all, an experience.
Love is a mysterious and a complicated force. What do a person mean when they say they love someone? Love is many different things. Each of us have our own understanding of Love is, and most of the time we base our definitions from feelings and experiences. The book defines love in many ways. "It is a strong affection for another arising out of kinship or personal ties." It can be an affection and tenderness felt by lovers. Love is the object of attachment, devotion, or admiration.
Just when we thought we finally grasp what love is, somebody asks:
"Does anyone really know what "LOVE" mean? I believe I have......
A Good Heart to Lean on(2006-05-27 02:09:00)
摘要：When I was growing up, I was embarrassed to be seen with my father. He was severely crippled and very short, and when we would walk together, his hand on my arm for balance, people would stare. I would inwardly squirm at the unwanted attention. If he ever noticed or was bothered, he never let on.
It was difficult to coordinate our steps —— his halting, mine impatient —— and because of that, we didn't say much as we went along. But as we started out, he always said, "You set the pace. I will try to adjust to you. "
Our usual walk was to or from the subway, which was how he got to work. He went to work sick, and despite nasty weather. He almost never missed a day, and would make it to the office even if others could not. A matter of pride.
When snow or ice was on the ground, it was impossible for him to walk, even with help. At such times my sisters or I would pull him through the streets of Brooklyn, NY, on a child's sleigh to the subway entrance. Once there, he woul......

Angels are Always There 天使一直在你身边(2006-05-27 02:07:00)
摘要：
Surrounding you are angels,
They are there to guide your path,
If weakness overcomes you,
They'll give you strength if you will ask.
They are your protection
When life seems too hard to bear,
And though you feel alone at times,
The angels ... they are there.
Their faces may be hidden
And their voices you might not hear,
But they are ALWAYS with you,
Through your laughter or your tears.
They'll walk along beside you,
They'll guide your steps along the way,
They'll comfort you and hold you,
Protect you night and day.
They'll hold to your hand tightly,
They'll not ever let it go,
And they'll gently lead you forward,
Taking each step very slow.
For even as you slumber,
They watch closely over you;
They are there beside you
In each and every thing you do.
When life is overwhelming,
And your spirit has grown tired,
Know they'll be there for you,
To uplift and to inspire.
And when you're torn and lonely,
And you see no hope a......
Weakness or Strength 将弱项变为强项(2006-05-27 02:07:00)
摘要：
Sometimes our biggest weakness can become your biggest strength. Take, for example, the story t of one 10-year-old boy who decided to study judo despite the fact that the had lost his left arm in a devastating car accident.
The boy began lesson with an old Japanese judo master. The boy was dong well, so he couldn't understand why, after three months of training, the master had taught him only one move.
"Mister," the boy finally said, "shouldn't I be learning more moves?"
"This is the only move you know, but this is the only move you'll ever need to know," the master replied.
Not quite understanding, but believing in his teacher, the boy kept training.
Several months later, the master took the boy to his first tournament.
To his surprise,, the boy easily won his first two matches. The third match proved to be more difficult, but after some time, his opponent became impatient and charged; the boy deftly used his one move to win the match. Still amazed by his success, ......
Feed Your Mind 充实你的思想(2006-05-24 23:13:00)
摘要：Since the pre-historic times, man has had an urge to satisfy his needs. Be it hunger, shelter or search for a mate, he has always manipulated the circumstances to the best of his advantages. Probably this might be the reason why we human are the most developed of all living species on the earth, and probably also in the universe. As we climbed the steps of evolution with giant leaps, we somehow left behind common sense and logical thinking — we forgot that we have stopped thinking ahead of times.
If you are hungry, what do you do? Grab a piece of your favorite meal and stay quiet after that? Just like your stomach, even your mind is hungry. But it never lets you know, because you keep it busy thinking about your dream lover, favorite star and many such absurd things. So it silently began to heed to your needs and never let itself grow. When mind looses its freedom to grow, creativity gets a full stop. This might be the reason why we all sometimes think "What happens next?", "Why can'......
成语典故翻译技巧(2006-05-24 22:58:00)
摘要：·一桶水摇不响，半桶水响叮当
有人照字面译成：The full pot of water makes no sound; the half-empty pot of water is noisy. 老外听后，也许会感到困惑。他们有自己的说法：A little knowledge (or learning) can be (or is) dangerous.（一知半解很危险）或者说： Still water runs deep.（静水深不可测）也可以说： He who knows the most says the least.（懂得越多的人，反而说得越少。）至于“大智若愚”，通常可以这么说：A truly wise person does not show off his (her) ability.（真正聪明的人，是不会显要自己的能力）
·水落石出
有人照字直译为：As the water level sinks,the stones are exposed.这样说，恐怕老外还是听不懂。他们的说法是：All secrets may eventually come to light. (所有祕密最后总会曝光。)也可以说： Eventually, every secret will be disclosed.
·这山望到那山高
有人译成：The apples on the other side of the wall are the sweetest.（意思是：墙那边的苹果最甜）当然，如要译成： If you stand on a mountain, you feel the distant mountain seems higher than yours. 老外也勉强能接受。 而他们的最习惯说法是：The grass always looks greener on the other side.（另一边的草，看来总是绿些。）
·烈火炼真金，患难见真情
有人译成：Fire is the test of gold；adversity is the test of friendship. 这句译文，虽然很好，老外也能了解，但是他们还有另外的说法：Liquor brings out a person's true color.（烈酒能显示一个人真正的特......
