Nowadays,more and more young people are becoming too proud and over-confident.
They think they can do everything.So they simply ignore their old parents,and believe that
their parents’ experienced thoughts are out of date.Actually I used to be one of them,
but after hearing a story told by my father,I changed my mind completely.
Now I would like to share it with all of you.
Once,there’s a young man who look down on the old.He always thought that the old were just
nuisances in your busy life,a useless life that was going to wither.He also did this to his father.
One day,the father and the son happened to meet each other in the grove.The son suggested
that they should take a walk together.As they walked,a beautiful garden came into their sight.
The son pointed to one of the prettiest flower and said,
‘we young people are like this fragrant flower,so healthy,so vigorous,and full of spirit.
What about you oldsters?Just like the falling leaves from a dying tree.’
Hearing this,
the father smiled butsaid nothing.They continued the walking in silence.when they passed a grocery,
the father stopped and went in,he bought a walnut and show it to his son,slow and gracious,he said,
‘we old are like this walnut.We’ve experienced many hard events in life.
So we built up such a firm shell,
and at the same time we also built up a pure inner world.Every fruit is so full-grown.’
‘but every fruit wasborn by flower.’ Refuted the son.
‘yes,but not every flower can bear fruit….’
From the on,I always keep this story in my mind.It has taught me a lot.
We should try to be a flower that can bear fruit.we alsohave to know that our parents aren’t nuisances,
useless lives or falling leaves but are experienced walnuts,masterpiece of nature.
They are the ones we should appreciate forever.中文翻譯呢？你們老師還需要你們把中文再演講一遍嗎？ 意思讓他們自己去翻 。。讓老師出頭呀我總得知道是什么意思的吧...比較好背。網(wǎng)上找來的一篇英文故事，沒有中文的。我只好自己一句句翻譯了－ －。希望對(duì)你有幫助！現(xiàn)在，越來越多的年輕人正在變得很驕傲、不自量力。他們認(rèn)為他們可以做所有的事。因此他們會(huì)忽略他們父母的思想，而且認(rèn)為年老的父母雖然經(jīng)驗(yàn)豐富，但思想已經(jīng)過時(shí)了。實(shí)際上，我曾經(jīng)也是他們中的一員，但是，在聽取了我父親告訴我的故事，我的想法完全改變了。曾經(jīng)，有一位看不起老人的年輕人，他總是認(rèn)為老人的生命是無用和枯萎的，他們只會(huì)打擾自己忙碌的生活。他就是這樣對(duì)待他父親的。有一天，這個(gè)父親和這個(gè)兒子在樹木里偶然遇見。兒子建議他們應(yīng)該一起出去走走。于是他們走著走著，來到了一處美麗的花園。兒子指著一朵最漂亮的花，說：“我們這樣的年輕人就喜歡芳香的花，它們是如此健康，如此蓬勃，如此具有飽滿的精神。而你們這些老人呢？就像那些從垂死的樹上飄下的落葉?！备赣H聽到這話，含笑不語。他們繼續(xù)安靜得走著。當(dāng)他們路過一家雜貨店時(shí)，父親停住了腳步，走了進(jìn)去。他買了一些核桃，然后緩慢而親切得遞給他兒子看，并說：“我們就像這些老核桃，生活中經(jīng)歷了許多挫折，因此，我們建立了這樣一層堅(jiān)固的殼，同時(shí)，還建立了一個(gè)純潔的內(nèi)心世界。每一個(gè)果實(shí)都是如此得豐滿。”“但是每一個(gè)果實(shí)都是花結(jié)下的！”兒子反駁道?！按_實(shí)是這樣，但是，不是每一朵花都能結(jié)下果實(shí)……”從那時(shí)起，我把這個(gè)故事銘刻在腦海里。它教會(huì)了我很多東西。我們應(yīng)該努力成為一朵能結(jié)果實(shí)的花朵。我們也必須知道，我們的父母并沒有對(duì)我們的生活造成困擾，他們不是無用的生命和落葉。他們是經(jīng)驗(yàn)豐富的核桃，是大自然的杰作。他們才是我們應(yīng)該永遠(yuǎn)感激的。
