【一】 Love your life
热爱生活
However mean your life is,meet it and live it ;do not shun it and call it hardnames.
It is not so bad as you suppose.
It looks poorest when you are richest.
The fault-finder will find faults in paradise.
Love your life,poor as it is.
You may perhaps have some pleasant,thrilling,glorious hourss,even in a poor-house.
The setting sun is reflected from the windows of the alms-house as brightly as from the rich man's abode;the snow melts before its door as early in the spring.
不论你的生活如何卑贱，你要面对它生活，不要躲避它，更别用恶言咒骂它。
它不像你那样坏。
你最富有的时候，倒是看似最穷。
爱找缺点的人就是到天堂里也能找到缺点。
你要爱你的生活，尽管它贫穷。
甚至在一个济贫院里，你也还有愉快、高兴、光荣的时候。
夕阳反射在济贫院的窗上，像身在富户人家窗上一样光亮;在那门前，积雪同在早春融化。
I do not see but a quiet mind may live as contentedly there,and have as cheering thoughts,as in a palace.
The town's poor seem to me often to live the most independent lives of any.
May be they are simply great enough to receive without misgiving.
Most think that they are above being supported by the town;but it often happens that they are not above supporting themselves by dishonest means.
which should be more disreputable.
我只看到，一个从容的人，在哪里也像在皇宫中一样，生活得心满意足而富有愉快的思想。
城镇中的穷人，我看，倒往往是过着最独立不羁的生活。
也许因为他们很伟大，所以受之无愧。
大多数人以为他们是超然的，不靠城镇来支援他们;可是事实上他们是往往利用了不正当的'手段来对付生活，他们是毫不超脱的，毋宁是不体面的。
Cultivate poverty like a garden herb,like sage.
Do not trouble yourself much to get new things,whether clothes or friends,Turn the old,return to them.
Things do not change;we change.
Sell your clothes and keep your thoughts.
视贫穷如园中之花而像圣人一样耕植它吧!不要找新的花样，无论是新的朋友或新的衣服，来麻烦你自己。
找旧的，回到那里去。
万物不变，是我们在变。
你的衣服可以卖掉，但要保留你的思想。
【二】 A special letter
一封特殊的信
Dear World:
亲爱的世界：
My son starts school today.
我的儿子今天就要开始上学读书了。
It's going to be strange and new to him for a while, and I wish you would sort of treat him gently.
一时之间，他会感觉陌生而又新鲜。
我希望你能待他温柔一些。
You see, up to now, he's been king of the roost.
你明白，到现在为止，他一直是家中的小皇帝。
He's been boss of the backyard.
一直是后院的王者。
I have always been around to repair his wounds, and to soothe his feelings.
我一直在他身旁，忙着为他治疗伤口，哄他开心。
But now--things are going to be different.
但是现在--一切都将不同了。
This morning, he's going to walk down the front steps, wave his hand and start on his great adventure that will probably include wars and tragedy and sorrow.
今天清晨，他就要走下前门的楼梯，冲我挥手，然后开始他的伟大的历险征程，其间或许有争斗、不幸以及伤痛。
To live his life in the world he has to live in will require faith and love and courage.
既然活在这个世上，他就需要信念、爱心和勇气。
So, World, I wish you would sort of take him by his young hand and teach him the things he will have to know.
所以，世界啊，我希望你能够时不时握住他稚嫩的小手，传授他所应当知晓的事情。
Teach him - but gently, if you can.
教育他吧--而如果可能的话，温柔一些。
Teach him that for every scoundrel there is a hero; that for every crooked politician there is a dedicated leader; that for every enemy there is a friend.
教他知道，每有恶人之地，必有豪杰所在;每有奸诈小人，必有献身义士;每见一敌人，必有一友在侧。
Teach him the wonders of books.
教他感受书本的神奇魅力。
Give him quiet time to ponder the eternal mystery of birds in the sky, bees in the sun, and flowers on the green hill.

.
and to stand and fight if he thinks he's right.

Teach him gently, World, but don't coddle him, because only the test of fire makes fine steel.

This is a big order, World, but see what you can do.
这一要求甚高，世界，但是请尽你所能。
He's such a nice little fellow.
他是一个如此可爱的小家伙。
【三】Industry significance
勤劳的意义
The significant inscription found on an old key "If I rest, I rust" would be an excellent motto for those who are afflicted with the slightest taint of idleness.
Even the most industrious might adopt it with advantage to serve as a reminder that, if one allows his faculties to rest, like the iron in the unused key, they will soon show signs of rust and, ultimately, cannot do the work required of them.
在一把旧钥匙上发现了一则意义深远的铭文——如果我休息，我就会生锈。
对于那些懒散而烦恼的人来说，这将是至理名言。
甚至最为勤勉的人也以此作为警示：如果一个人有才能而不用，就像废弃钥匙上的铁一样，这些才能就会很快生锈，并最终无法完成安排给自己的工作。
Those who would attain the heights reached and kept by great men must keep their faculties polished by constant use, so that they may unlock the doors of knowledge, the gate that guard the entrances to the professions, to science, art, literature, agriculture --- every department of human endeavor.
有些人想取得伟人所获得并保持的成就，他们就必须不断运用自身才能，以便开启知识的大门，即那些通往人类努力探求的各个领域的大门，这些领域包括各种职业：科学，艺术，文学，农业等。
Industry keeps bright the key that opens the treasury of achievement.
If Hugh Miller, after toiling all day in a quarry, had devoted his evenings to rest and recreation, he would never have become a famous geologist.
The celebrated mathematician, Edmund Stone, would never have published a mathematical dictionary, never have found the key to science of mathematics, if he had given his spare moments to idleness.
Had the little Scotch lad, Ferguson, allowed the busy brain to go to sleep while he tended sheep on the hillside instead of calculating the position of the stars by a string of beads, he would never have become a famous astronomer
勤奋使开启成功宝库的钥匙保持光亮。
如果休米勒在采石场劳作一天后，晚上的时光用来休息消遣的话，他就不会成为名垂青史的地质学家。
著名数学家爱德蒙斯通如果闲暇时无所事事，就不会出版数学词典，也不会发现开启数学之门的钥匙。
如果苏格兰青年弗格森在山坡上放羊时，让他那思维活跃的大脑处于休息状态，而不是借助一串珠子计算星星的位置，他就不会成为著名的天文学家。
Labor vanquishes all --- not inconstant, spasmodic, or ill-directed labor, but faithful, unremitting, daily effort toward a well-directed purpose.
Just as truly as eternal vigilance is the price of liberty, so is eternal industry the price of noble and enduring success.
劳动征服一切。
这里所指的劳动不是断断续续的，间歇性的或方向偏差的劳动，而是坚定的，不懈的，方向正确的每日劳动。
正如要想拥有自由就要时刻保持警惕一样，要想取得伟大的，持久的成功，就必须坚持不懈地努力。
