周作人所說的“美文”開始近似于西方的Essay,后來又接近于晚明小品,在這種融會中西,貫通古今的借鑒、模仿、創(chuàng)造中他形成自己獨特的,也是經(jīng)典的“美文”思想。下面是學習啦小編帶來的初中英語朗誦美文，歡迎閱讀!

　　勇氣

　　The courage of life is often a less dramatic spectacle than the courage of a final moment; but it is no lessa magnificent mixture of triumph and tragedy. A man does what he must in spite of personal consequences，in spite of obstacles and dangers and pressures and that is the basis of all human morality.

　　To be courageous…requires no exceptional qualifications，no magic formula，no special combination of time，place and circumstance.It is an opportunity that sooner or later is presented to us all. Politics merely furnishes one arena which imposes special tests of courage.In whatever arena of life one may meet the challengeof courage，whatever may be the sacrifices he faces if he follows his conscience，the loss of his friends，his fortune，his contentment， even the esteem of his fellow men，each man must decide for himself the course he will follow. The stories of past courage can define that ingredient，they can teach，they can offer hope，they can provide inspiration.But they cannot supply courage itself. For this each man must look into his own soul.

　　生活之中的勇氣，通常不會像千鈞一發(fā)時的勇氣那樣充滿戲劇性;但他人不失為是一個勝利與悲劇的壯觀組合。一個人將個人得失，障礙、危險還有壓力拋在腦后，只是做他必須做的，而這便是人類一切道德的基礎。

　　勇敢，不需要突出的品質，不需要秘訣，不需要天時地利，每個人或早或晚都有機會。政治不過是對勇氣進行特別考驗的一個競技場而已，在人生的每一個競技場上勇氣都會前來挑戰(zhàn)。如果你跟隨你的良心，那么任何東西都可能被犧牲：朋友，財產(chǎn)，滿足，甚至是別人對你的尊重。走哪條路只能由自己來決定。前人的故事可以告訴你什么叫勇敢。他們能夠教你，能夠給你希望和靈感，但不能給你真正的勇氣，要得到它你必須要發(fā)掘自己的靈魂。

　　學會活在當下

　　To a large degree, the measure of our peace of mind is determined by how much we are ableto live in the present moment. Irrespective of what happened yesterday or last year, and whatmay or may not happen tomorrow, the present moment is where you are -- always!

　　Without question, many of us have mastered the neurotic art of spending much our livesworrying about a variety of things -- all at once. We allow past problems and future concernsto dominate our present moments,so much that we end up anxious,frustrated, depressed,and hopeless. On the flip side, we also postpone our gratification, our stated priorities, andour happiness, often convincing ourselves future will be better than today. Unfortunately, thesame mental dynamics that tell us to look toward the future will only repeat themselves sothat"someday "never actually arrives. John Lennon once said,"Life is what~ s happening whilewe"re busy making other plans. "When we"re busy making "other plans", our children are busygrowing up, the people we love are moving away and dying, our bodies are getting out ofshape, and our dreams are slipping away. In short, we miss out on life.

　　Many people live as if life were a dress rehearsal for some later date. It isn't. In fact, no onehas a guarantee that he or she will be here tomorrow. Now is the only time we have, and theonly time that we have any control over. When our attention is in the present moment, wepush fear from our minds. Fear is the concern over events that might happen in the future --we won't have enough money, our children will get into trouble, we will get old and die,whatever.

　　在很大程度上，我們內心的平和取決于我們在多大程度上享受眼前的生活。不管昨天或去年發(fā)生了什么，也不管明天將會發(fā)生什么或不會發(fā)生什么，現(xiàn)實才是你所在之處——生活就是這樣。

　　毫無疑問，在我們的生活中，許多人總是這樣的神經(jīng)兮兮，他們擔心各種各樣的事情，而且會突然之間擔心許多事情。我們讓過去與未來的問題支配我們現(xiàn)有的時間，以致于整日焦躁不安、委靡不振、精神沮喪甚至感到絕望。另一方面，我們又永遠不讓自己滿足、享有優(yōu)先權和幸福感，而且還經(jīng)常說服自己將來會比今天好。不幸的是是，同樣的告訴我們去展望未來的精神動力，它只是不斷重復自己，以致于“某一天”永遠不能到來。約翰·列儂曾說：“生活就是我們忙于制訂其他計劃時所發(fā)生的事。”當我們忙于制訂“其他計劃”時，我們的孩子忙于成長，我們所愛之人遠離、并撒手塵寰，我們體型走樣了，我們的夢想消失了?？傊?，我們錯過了人生的大好光陰。

　　許多人活著，他們的生活就像未來日子的一次時裝彩排。然而，并非如此。事實上，沒有人能確保他或她明天還在?，F(xiàn)在是我們擁有的惟一時間，是惟一能夠把握的時間。當我們的注意力集中于現(xiàn)在時，我們便能消除恐懼。 恐懼是我們對未來事情的擔心，比如我們沒有足夠的錢，我們的孩子會惹上麻煩，我們會變老，會離開人世，如此等等，不勝枚舉。

　　致

　　One word is too often profaned

　　For me to profane it,

　　One feeling too falsely distain'd

　　For thee to distain it;

　　One hope is too like despair

　　For prudence to smother,

　　And pity from thee more dear

　　Than that from another.

　　I can not give what men call love:

　　But wilt thou accept not

　　The worship the heart lifts above

　　And the heavens reject not,

　　And the desire of the moth for the star,

　　Of the nigth for the morrow

　　The devotion to something afar

　　From the sphere of our sorrow.

　　有一個字經(jīng)常被人褻瀆

　　我不會再來褻瀆

　　有一種感情被人假意鄙薄

　　你也不會再來鄙薄

　　有一種希望太似絕望;

　　何須再加提防

　　你的令憫之情無人能比，

　　溫暖著我的心。

　　我不能給你人們所稱的愛情，

　　但不知你能否接受

　　這顆心對你的仰慕之情，

　　連上天也不會拒絕。

　　猶如飛蛾撲向星星，

　　又如黑夜追求黎明。

　　這種思慕之情，

　　早已跳出了人間的苦境!
