[00:04.92]My house is perfect.

[00:07.65]By great good fortune I he found a housekeeper no less to my mind,

[00:13.88]a low-vod, light-footed woman of discreet age, strong and deft enough to render me all the serv I require,

[00:25.15]and not afraid of loneliness.

[00:27.89]She rises very early.

[00:29.86]By my breakfast-time there remains little to be done under the roof se dressing of meals.

[00:37.84]Very rarely do I hear n a clink of crockery; nr the closing of a door or window.

[00:45.61]Oh, blessed silence!

[00:48.02]My house is perfect.

[00:51.19]Just large enough to allow the grace of order in domestic circumstance;

[00:57.43]just that superfluity of inner space, to lack which is to be less than at one's ease.

[01:04.98]The fabric is sound; the work in wood and plaster ls of a more leisurely and a more honest age than ours.

[01:14.95]The stairs do not creak under my step; I am attacked by no unkindly draught;

[01:22.04]I can open or close a window without muscle-ache.

[01:26.32]As to such trifles as the color and dev of wall-, I confess my indifference;

[01:34.30]be the walls only plain, and I am satisfied.

[01:38.78]The first thing in one's home is comfort;

[01:42.72]let beauty of detail be added if one has the means, the patience, the eye.

[01:50.28]To me, this little book-room is beautiful, and chiefly because it is home.

[01:57.93]Through the greater part of life I was homeless.

[02:02.42]Many places he I lived, some which my soul disliked, and some which pleased me well;

[02:10.40]but nr till now with that sense of security which makes a home.

[02:16.53]At any moment I might he been driven forth by evil accident, by disturbing necessity.

[02:24.08]For all that time did I say within myself:

[02:28.57]Some day, perchance, I shall he a home;

[02:33.27]yet the "perchance" had more and more of emphasis as life went on,

[02:39.18]and at the moment when fate was secretly iling on me, I had all but abandoned hope.

[02:46.51]I he my home at last.

[02:49.47]This house is mine on a lease of a score of years.

[02:54.17]So long I certainly shall not live;

[02:57.45]but, if I did, n so long should I he the money to pay my rent and buy my food.

[03:06.21]I am no coopolite.

[03:08.72]Were I to think that I should die away from England, the thought would be dreadful to me.

[03:14.96]And in England, this is the place of my cho; this is my home.

关于晨读英语美文：我们相亲相爱

Stray birds of summer e to my window to sing and fly away.

And yellow lees of autumn, which he no songs, flutter and fall there with a sign.

O Troupe of little vagrants of the world, lee your footprints in my words.

The world puts off its make of vastness to its lover.

It bees all as one song, as one kiss of the eternal.

It is the tears of the earth that keep her iles in bloom.

The mighty desert is burning for the love of a blade of grass who shakes her head and laughs and flies away.

If you shed tears when you miss the sun, you also miss the stars.

The sands in your way beg for your song and your movement, dancing water. Will you carry the burden of their lameness?

Her wishful face haunts my dreams like the rain at night.

Once we dreamt that we were strangers.

We wake up to find that we were dear to each other.

关于晨读英语美文：天生赢家

Each human being is born as soming new, soming that nr existed before. Each is bornwith the capacity to win at life. Each person has a unique way of seeing, hearing, touching,tasting and thinking. Eachhas his or her own unique potentials - capabilities and limitations.Each can be a significant, thinking,aware, and creative being - a productive person, a winner.

The word “winner” and “loser” he many meanings. When we refer to a person as a winner, wedo not mean one who makes someone else lose. To us, a winner is one who respondsauthentically by being credible, trustworthy, responsive, and genuine, both as an individualand as a member of a society.

Winners do not dedicate their lives to a concept of what they imagine they should be; rather,they are themselves and as such do not use their energy putting on a performance,

maintaining pretence, and manipulating others. They are aware that there is a differencebetween being loving and acting loving, between being stupid and acting stupid, betweenbeing knowledgeable and acting knowledgeable. Winners do not need to hide behind amask.

Winners are not afraid to do their own thinking and to use their own knowledge. They canseparate facts from opinion and don’t pretend to he all the answers. They listen to others,evaluate what they say, but e to their own conclusions. Although winners can ade andrespect other people, they are not totally defined, demolished, bound, or awed by them.

Winners do not play “less”, nor do they play the blaming . Instead, they assumeresponsibility for their own lives. They do not give others a false authority over them. Winnersare their own bosses and know it.

A winner’s timing is right. Winners respond appropriay to the situation. Their responses arerelated to the message sent and preserve the significance, worth, well-being, and dignity ofthe people involved. Winners know that for rything there is a season and for ry activity atime.

Although winners can freely enjoy themselves, they can also tpone enjoyment, candiscipline themselves in the present to enhance their enjoyment in the future. Winners arenot afraid to go after what they want,but they do so in appropriate ways. Winners do not gettheir security by controlling others. They do not set themselves up to lose.

A winner cares about the world and its peoples. A winner is not isolated from the generalproblems of society, but is concerned, passionate, and mitted to improving thequality of life. Even in the face of national and international aersity, a winner’s self-image isnot one of a powerless individual. A winner works to make the world a better place.

关于晨读英语美文：自由就是秩序

Liberty is order.Liberty is strength. Look round the world, and ade, as you must, theinstructive spectacle. You will see that liberty not only is power and order, but that it is powerand order predominant and invincible - that it derides all other sources of strength. And shallthe preterous imagination be fostered, that men bred in liberty - the first of humankindwho asserted the glorious distinction of formingfor themselves their social pact - can becondemned to silence upon their rights? Is it to be conceivedthat men who he enjoyed, forsuch a length of days, the light and happiness of , can be restrained, and shut upagain in the gloom of ignorance and degradation? As well, sir, might you try, by a miserabledam, to shut up theflowing of a rapid river! The rolling and impetuous tide would burstthrough ry impediment that man mightthrow in its way; and the only consequence of theimpotent attempt would be, that,hing collected new forceby its temporary suspension,enforcing itself through new channels, it wouldspread devastation and ruin on ry side. Theprogress of liberty is like the progress of the stream. Kept within its bounds, it is sure tofertilize the country through which it runs; but no power can arrest itin its passage; and shortsighted, as well as wicked, must be the heart of the projector that would striveto divert itscourse.

晨读英语短美文篇一： I had a letter from my sister yesterday. She lives in Nigeria. In her letter, she said that she would come to England next year. If she comes, she will get a surprise. We are now living in a beautiful new house in the country. Work on it had begun before my sister left. The house was completed five months ago. In my letter, I told her that she could stay with us. The house has many large rooms and there is a lovely garden. It is a very modern house, so it looks strange to some people. It must be the only modern house in the district.

我收到我妹妹的一封信昨天。她住在尼日利亚。在她的信中，她说她明年将到英国来。如果她来，她会大吃一惊。我们的现在是生活在一个美丽的新房子。这栋房子在我姐姐离开之前。房子是五个月前完工。在我的信中，我告诉她，她可以和我们住在一起。这栋房子里有许多房间，还有一个漂亮的花园。这是一个非常现代化的住宅，因此在有些人看来很古怪。它必须是这个地区的一栋现代化住宅。

晨读英语短美文篇二： I entered the ho mar's off and sat down. I had just lost $50 and I felt very upset. 'I left the money in my room,' I said, 'and it's not there now.' The mar was sympathetic, but he could do nothing. 'Everyone's losing money these days,' he said. He started to complain about this wicked world but was interrupted by a knock at the door. A girl came in and put an envelope on his desk. It contained $50. 'I found this outside this gentleman's room,' she said. 'Well,' I said to the mar, 'there is still some honesty in this world!'

我走进饭店的办公室，坐了下来。我刚刚丢了50英镑，感到非常烦恼。"我把钱放在房间里，"我说，"可现在没有了。"深表同情，但却无能为力。"现在大家都在丢钱，"他说。他开始抱怨起这个邪恶的世界，但却被敲门声打断了。一个姑娘走了进来，把一个信封放在了他桌上。它包含了50美元。"我先生的房门外发现了，"她说。"好吧，"我对那位说，"这世界上还是有诚实可言的!"

晨读英语短美文篇三： Pumas are large, cat-like animals which are found in America. When reports came into London Zoo that a wild puma had been spotted forty-five miles south of London, they were not taken seriously. Howr, as the evidence began to accumulate, experts from the Zoo felt obliged to investigate, for the descriptions given by people who claimed to he seen the puma were extraordinarily similar.

The t for the puma began in a all village where a woman picking blackberries saw 'a large cat' only five yards away from her. It immediay ran away when she saw it, and experts confirmed that a puma will not attack a human being unless it is cornered(adj.被困得走投无路的). The search proved difficult, for the puma was often observed at one place in the morning and at another place twenty miles away in the ning. Wherr it went, it left behind it a trail of dead deer and all animals like rabbits. Paw prints were seen in a number of places and puma fur was found clinging to bushes. Sral people complained of 'cat-like noises' at night and a businesan on a fishing trip saw the puma up a tree. The experts were now fully convinced that the animal was a puma, but where had it come from ? As no pumas had been reported missing from any zoo in the country, this one must he been in the session of a private collector and somehow mad to escape. The t went on for sral weeks, but the puma was not caught. It is disturbing to think that a erous wild animal is still at large in the quiet countryside.

美洲狮是一种体形似猫的大动物，产于美洲。当伦敦动物园接到报告说，在伦敦以南45英里处发现一只美洲狮时，这些报告并没有受到重视。可是，随着证据越来越多，动物园的专家们感到有必要进行一番调查，因为凡是声称见到过美洲狮的人们所描述的情况竟是出奇地相似。

1.Get to know your new home before you land in it

There is no substitute for good preparation. Arm yourself with background knowledge by researching rmation about the country you are going to. Thanks to the Internet, most of this can be found at the click of a button.

If you are fortunate enough to make the acquaintance of a foreign native (from the country you wish to study in), be sure to ask them as many questions as sible on things such as good places to live, the cost of transport or important celebrations during the year. The rmation they provide would most likely not be published in any textbooks or tourist magazines.

2.Attitude is rything.

Don't underestimate the power of the mind in determining how nts turn out. Decide how to approach any situation, before you are placed in it. Positive thoughts about your new circumstances and a itive attitude toward your new home and hosts will bring itive results.

3.Pack using your head and your heart.

It's not easy being practical when deciding what to pack and there is always that temptation to bring cherished personal belongings such as books, letters or fluffy toys. Whatr you bring, make sure that is will be soming that you think might your chances of succeeding.

This includes practical s such as study materials, old class notes, forite textbooks or pens and n the contact details of previous teachers.

每日英语晨读美文篇一 Causes Are People

by Susan Parker Cobbs

IT HAS NOT been easy for me to meet this assignment. In the first place, I am not a very articulate person, and then one has so many beliefs, changing and fragmented and transitory beliefs---besides the ones most central to our lives. I he tried hard to pull out and put into words my most central beliefs. I hope that what I say won’t sound either too or too pious.

I know that it is my deep and fixed conviction that man has within him the force of good and the power to translate force into life. For me, this means that a pattern of life that makes personal relationships more important. A pattern that makes more beautiful and attractive the personal virtues: courage, humility, selflessness and love. I used to ile at my mother because the tears came so readily to her eyes when she heard or read of some incident that called out these virtues. I don’t ile any more because I find I he become more and more responsive in the same inconvenient way to the same kind of story.

And so I beli that I both can and must work to achi the good that is in me. The words of Socrates keep coming back to me: “The unexamined life is not worth living.” By examination we can discover what is our good and we can realize that knowledge of good means its achiment. I know that such self-examination has nr been easy---Plato maintained that it was soul’s central search. It seems to me peculiarly difficult now. In a period of such rapid material expansion and such wide spread conflicts, black and white he become gray and will not easily separate.

There is a belief which follows this. If I he the potential of the good life within me and compulsion to express it, then it is a power and compulsion common to all men. What I must he for myself to conduct my search, all men must he: of cho, faith in the power and the benefnt qualities of truth. What frightens me most today is the denial of these rights, because this can only come from the denial of what seems to me the essential nature of man. For if my conviction holds, man is more important than anything he has created and our great task is to bring back again into a subordinate ition the monstrous superstructures of our society.

I hope this way of reducing our problems to the human equation is not an evasion of them. I don’t beli it is. For most of us it is the area in which we can work : the human area---with ourselves, with the people we touch, and through these two by vicarious understanding, with mankind. I beli this is the safest starting point. I watch young people these days wrestling with our mighty problems. They are much more concerned with them and involved in them than my generation of students r was. They are deeply aware of the words “quality” and “just” In their great desire to right wrong they are prone to forget that causes are people, that nothing matters more than people. They need to add to their crusades the warmer and more affecting virtues of compassion and love. And here again come those personal virtues that bring tears to the eyes.

One further word, I beli that the power of good within us is real and comes there from a source outside and beyond ourselves. Otherwise, I could not put my trust so firmly in it.

每日英语晨读美文篇二 Keep the Innocent Eye

By Sir Hugh Casson

When I Accepted the invitation to join in "This I Beli," it was not-goodness knows-because I felt I had anything profound to contribute. I regarded it-selfishly, perhaps-as a chance to get my own ideas straight. I started, because it seemed st that way, with my own profession. The signts I try to follow as an architect are these: to keep the innocent eye with which we are all born, and therefore always to be astonished; to respect the scholar but not the style snob; to like what I like without humbug, but also to train my eye and mind so that I can say why I like it; to use my head but not to be frightened to listen to my heart (for there are some things which can be learned only through emotion); finally, to dlop to the best of my ability the best that lies within me.

But what, you may say, about the really big problems of life- Religion? Politics? World Affairs? Well, to be honest, these great problems do not weigh heily upon my mind. I he always cared more for the all simplicities of life-family affection, loyalty of friends, joy in creative work.

Religion? Well, when challenged I describe myself as "Church of England," and as a child I went regularly to church. But today, though I respect churchgoing as an act of piety and enjoy its sidelines, so to speak, the music and the architecture, it holds no significance for me. Perhaps, I don't know, it is the atmosphere of death in which religion is so steeped that has discouraged me-the greyards, the parsonical vo, the thin damp ell of stone. Even today a "holy" face conjures up not saintliness but moroseness. So, most of what I learned of Christian morality I think I really learned indirectly at home and from friends.

World Affairs? I wonder if some of yoemember a famous prewar cartoon. It depicted a crocodile emerging from a peace conference and announcing to a huge flock of sheep (labeled "People of the World"), "I am so sorry we he failed. We he been unable to restrain your warlike ambitions." Frankly, I feel at home with those sheep-mild, benevolent, rather apprehensive creatures, acting toger by instinct and of course very, very woolly. But I he learned too, I think, that there is still no force, not n Christianity, so strong as patrioti; that the instinctive wisdom with which we all act in moments of crisis-that queer code of conduct which is understood by all but nr formulated-is a better guide than any panel of professors; and finally that it is the inferiority complex, usually the result of an unhappy or unlucky home, which is at the bottom of nearly all our troubles. Is the solution, then, no more than to see that ry child has a happy home? I'm not sure that it isn't. Children are nearer truth than we are. They he the innocent eye.

If you think that such a philosophy of life is superficial or tiresomely homespun or irresponsible, I will remind you in reply that the title of this series is "This I Beli”-not "This I ought to beli," nor n "This I would like to beli”-but, "This I Beli."

每日英语晨读美文篇三 Dreams Are the Stuff Life Is Made Of

By Carroll Carroll

I beli I am a very lucky man.

My entire life has been lived in the healthy area between too little and too much. I’ve nr experienced financial or emotional insecurity, but rything I he, I’ve attained by my own work, not through indulgence, inheritance, or privilege.

Nr hing lived by the abuses of any extreme, I’ve always felt that a workman is worthy of his hire, a merchant entitled to his profit, an artist to his reward.

As a result of all this, my bargaining bump may be a little underdloped, so I’ve nr tried to oversell myself. And though I may work for less than I know I can get, I find that because of this, I’m nr so afraid of losing a job that I’m forced to compromise with my principles.

Naturally in a life as mentally, physically, emotionally, and financially fortunate as mine has been, a great many people he ed me. A few meant to, most did so by accident. I still feel I must reciprocate. This doesn’t mean that I’ve dedicated my life to my fellow man. I’m not the type. But I do feel I should those I’m qualified to , just as I’ve been ed by others.

What I’m saying now is, I feel, part of that pattern. I think ryone should, for his own sake, try to reduce to six dred words the beliefs by which he lives—it’s not easy—and then compare those beliefs with what he enjoys—not in real estate and money and goods, but in love, health, happiness, and laughter.

I don’t beli we live our lives and then receive our reward or punishment in some afterlife. The life and the reward…the life and the punishment—these to me are one. This is my religion, coupled with a firm belief that there is a Supreme Being who planned this world and runs it so that “no man is an island, entire of himself…” The dishonesty of any one man subverts all honesty. The lack of ics anywhere erates the whole world’s ical content. In these—honesty and ics—are, I think, the true spiritual values.

I beli the hope for a thoroughly honest and ical society should nr be laughed at. The most idealistic dreams he repeatedly forecast the future. Most of the things we think of today as hard, practical, and n indispensable were once merely dreams.

So I like to hope that the world need not be a dog-eat-dog jungle. I don’t think I’m my brother’s keeper. But I do think I’m obligated to be his er. And that he has the same obligation to me.

In the last ysis, the entire pattern of my life and belief can be found in the words “do NOT do unto others that which you would NOT he others do unto you.” To say “Do unto others as you would he others DO unto you” somehow implies bargaining, an offer of for for for. But to restrain from acts which you, yourself, would abhor is an exercise in will power that must raise the ll of human relationship.

“What is unpleasant to thyself,” says Hillel, “THAT do NOT unto thy neighbor. This is the whole law,” and he concluded, “All else is exition.”
