The Father and His Son
Father had a family of sons who were perpetually quarrelling among themselves. When he failed to heal their disputes by his exhortations, he determined to give them a practical illustration of the evils of disunion; and for this purpose he one day told them to bring him a bundle of sticks. When they had done so, he placed the faggot into the hands of each of them in succession, and ordered them to break it in pieces. They each tried with all their strength, and were not able to do it.
He next unclosed the faggot, and took the sticks separately, one by one, and again put them into their hands, on which they broke them easily. He then addressed them in these words: "My sons, if you are of one mind, and unite to assist each other, you will be as this faggot, uninjured by all the attempts of your enemies; but if you are divided among yourselves, you will be broken as easily as these sticks."
一位父亲有几个孩子,这些孩子时常发生口角。他丝毫没有办法来劝阻他们,只好让他们看看不合群所带来害处的例子。为了达到这个目的,有一天他叫他们替他拿一捆细柴来。当他们把柴带来时,他便先后地将那捆柴放在每一个孩子的手中,吩咐他们弄断这捆柴。他们一个个尽力去试,总是不能成功。
然后他解开那捆柴,一根根地放在他们手里,如此一来,他们便毫不费力地折断了。于是他就告诉他们说:「孩子们!如果你们大家团结一致,互相帮助,你们就像这捆柴一样,不能被你们的敌人折断;但如果你们自行,你们就将和这些散柴一般,不堪一折了。
上世纪八十年代,手机开始使用,但只有有钱人家才有手机,到了九十年代,手机开始普及但却很笨重,随着时代的快速发展,人们的通讯工具日益增加,手机变得小巧了,功能也增加了很多,不管男女老少几乎人手一台,成为了我们日常必不可少的物品。然而手机却有利有弊。
在我们的日常生活中,首先,手机可以让我们随时随地和家人联系,这不仅在我们外出时可以使父母放心,也可以在我们遇到危险时及时求助;其次,手机可以便于朋友交流,能够增进友谊,在我们学习遇到困难时,还可以与同学讨论;再次,手机小巧方便携带,我们可以看到有价值的拍下来并及时与朋友进行分享;然后,手机中还有闹钟功能,我们不必再使用笨重的闹钟,不管在哪里手机里的闹钟都可以提醒我们,这个时间给做什么事情了。最后,我们还可在手机上浏览信息,及时知道面面俱到的最新消息。
手机固然便利,然而也有弊端。
首先,健康是大家共同关心的问题手机对人类的健康有着一定的影响。睡觉时,很多人把手机放枕边,手机的辐射会对人类的中枢神经系统造成机能性障碍,引起头痛、头昏、失眠、多梦和脱发等症状,有的人面部还会有刺激感。很多人经常熄灯后玩手机,手机的强光,会是黄斑部病变,轻者眼睛干涩,重者失明。其次,现在很多人得了“手机依赖症”,这严重耽误学习和工作。再次,现在学生们都有手机,档次各不相同,这极容易造成心里不平衡,引起攀比之风,给父母造成经济负担。最后,手机是贵重物品,这不仅给不法分子带来了偷窃的机会,还有可能引起一些不良学生偷盗的现象。严重影响了校园治安。
手机有利有弊,但只要我们合理的使用手机,扬长避短,发挥它应有的多用,造福我们的学习、工作、生活。我们应管理好自己的生活,作为一名中学生,我们应从我做起,对于合理使用,并用它传播正能量。
“Why need our care?’
“Because from then on the aunt cannot do what they liked to along with her daughter. She is very pitiful. In her distress, making dinners and doing chores are also becoming so difficult. My dear, can you help Mother hit an idea to help the aunt in other ways?”
At her mother’s proposal, the girl thought for a long while. All of a sudden, she went to the neighbor and knocked at the door.
The neighbor with a look of haggardness and tiredness opened the door.
“What can I do for you?” asked the neighbor.
“I heard my mother say you’re very distressed for losing your daughter…” The girl timidly handed the band-aid tightly held in her hand to the neighbor.
The neighbor suddenly choked with sobs, her tears gushing from her eyes. She hugged the girl and said, “Thank you. This band-aid will cure my wound.”
【中文翻译】
“妈妈,您在忙什么呢?”还不到6岁的女孩,好奇的问妈妈。
“给邻居家的阿姨做饭。”
“为什么?”
“前几天阿姨失去了心爱的女儿,现在很伤心。我们这几天要好好照顾她。”
“为什么需要我们照顾呢?”
“阿姨以后不能和她女儿一起做他们喜欢做的事了,很可怜。人在极度悲伤时,做饭和料理家务也会变得很难。女儿,你能不能也帮妈妈想想其他能帮助阿姨做的\'事呢?”
女孩听到妈妈的提议,认真的思考了很久,突然走到邻居家敲响了门。
一脸憔悴和疲惫的邻居开了门。
“有什么事吗?”邻居问道。
“听妈妈说,您因为失去了女儿,非常痛苦……”女孩羞涩的把攥在手里的创可贴递给了邻居。
“阿姨,把这个贴在胸口吧,那样你的心就不会痛了。”
邻居突然哽咽起来,泪水夺眶而出。她抱住女孩说:“谢谢,这个创可贴会治好我的伤口的。”
手机,通讯时代的代言词,潮流的代养人,现如今,全国约有2。4亿人在使用手机,这看起来似乎很帅。但是,孰不知任何事物都有两面性,手机亦是如此,他也有利弊两面。
现如今,手机已成为人们生活中的一样必不可少的一样工具。一提出这个观点,很多人会无视他,也有人会反驳说,手机的好处很多,它可以方便人们的联系,有利于人们的生活,还有很多功能可以帮助人们生活,这是不假但是,现象过他的危害吗。吸烟的危害,相信已经无人不知无人不晓,但如果有人跟你说,每年因为手机而死亡的人数,比因为香烟而死亡的人数还要多时,你是否会大吃一惊?!
有英国一名癌症研究专家发出了迄今为止最严重的手机警告:因使用手机致死的人数将超过吸烟受害者!
有统计显示,全世界手机用户已达吸烟人数的3倍。因此,专家认为,手机的危害将比香烟更严重。目前全球每年有500万人因吸烟导致的疾病死亡。
1977年,记者劳德首次发表提出使用手机可能会对大脑产生不良影响。由于当时使用手机的人很少,这篇文章没有引起人们的普遍关注。1985年,美国科学家林恩推测,长期用手机可能会诱发脑瘤。他还建议,尽量只用手机接电话,而不要往外拨打。所以说手机不尽危害自己还危害家人。而且,现在有的学生上课玩手机,用手机做题。令成绩一落千丈。我不能阻止别人买,但这还不能说明问题吗。
在这,我要告诉大家,任何事都有两面性,换一个角度思考会更好。
Ivan came home with a bloody nose and his mother asked, "What happened?"
"A kid bit me," replied Ivan.
"Would you recognize him if you saw him again?" asked his mother.
"I'd know him any where," said Ivan. "I have his ear in my pocket."
伊凡鼻子流着血回到家里。他妈妈问,“发生了什么事?”
“一个男孩咬了我一口,”伊凡说。
“再见到他你能认出来吗?”妈妈问。
“他走到哪里我都能认出他,”伊凡说。“他的耳朵还在我衣兜里呢。”
