Joke of Today

Are You Serious?

    There's a man who took his wife to see the movies. That day was a Sunday and it was very crowded, everyone was queuing to buy the tickets. So he and his wife were also in the queue, sweating.

    Suddenly, someone just punched him from behind. He was so angry, and already so mad and with his nerves on edge. He said, "Are you serious, man?!" The man that stood behind him was an ex-world champion boxer. So he looked at him and said, "Yes, serious, so what?" The man was small and skinny.

    He looked back, really looked at him now,studying him, he saw his arm muscles, just bigger than his whole body put together.So, he just kind of smiled and said. "It's all right, I hate people who are not serious."

    Never say good-bye if you still want to try.
    Never give up if you still feel you can go on.
    Never say you don’t love a person anymore if you can’t let go.

    如果还想努力，你就别说再见。
    如果仍想继续，你就别轻易放弃。
    如果不能放弃，你就别说再也不爱他。

    It takes only a minute to get a crush on someone, an hour to like someone, and a day to love someone-but it takes a lifetime to forget someone.

    迷上一个人只需一分钟，喜欢上一个人需要一小时，爱上一个人需要一天，但是忘记一个人却需要一辈子。

    Don’t go for looks; they can deceive. Don't go for wealth; even that fades away. Go for someone who makes you smile because it takes only a smile to make a dark day seem bright.

    不要追求外表，它们具有欺骗性；不要追求财富，它最终也会消亡。寻找使你欢笑的那个人吧，因为仅仅一个微笑就会使黑暗变得光明。

    Dream what you want to dream; go where you want to go; be what you want to be, because you have only one life and one chance to do all the things you wants to do.

    梦着你的梦想，去你想去的地方，做你想做的人吧，因为你只有一生和一个机会去做所有你想做的事情。

    May you have enough happiness to make you sweet, enough hope to make you happy.

    你可能已经拥有了足够多的兴奋让你感到甜蜜，有足够多的磨难让你磨练得更坚强，有足够多的悲哀让你更富有同情心，有足够的希望让你更想快乐。

    Always put yourself in others’ shoes. If you feel that it hurts you, it probably hurts the person too.

    经常设身处地为他人着想。己所不欲，勿施于人。

    A careless world may kindle strife; a cruel word may wreck a life; a timely word may level stress; a loving word may heal and bless.

    无心之语可能导致不和；无情的话可能毁掉一生；及时的良言可以缓解紧张；爱的心声可以宽慰心灵。

    The beginning of love is to let those we love be just themselves, and not twists them with our own image-otherwise; we love only the reflection of ourselves we find in them.

    爱之初，让我们所爱的人保持他们的本色，不要把他们扭曲成我们自己的模样，否则我们所爱的仅仅是我们在他们身上的影子。

    The happiest of people don’t necessarily have the best of everything; they just make the most of everything that comes along their way.

    最快乐的人不必事事尽善尽美，他们只会让大部分事情顺其自然。

    When you were born, you were crying and everything around you was smiling. Live your life so that when you die, you’re the one who is smiling and everyone around you is crying.

    当你呱呱落地时，你大声地哭泣，你周围的每个人都朝你微笑。而当你走完余生时，你是唯一微笑的人，你周围的人却要为你落泪。

    The brightest future will always be based on a forgotten past, you can’t get on well in life unless you let go of your past failures and heartaches.

    锦绣前程建立在对过去的宽怀之上，如果往昔的事物与烦恼总也不能释怀，生活就难以顺心如意

A Very Patient Pooch

    There was a barber in a developing country who had a little shed at the roadside to cut hair, and a certain man used to come in regularly for haircuts.

    One day he noticed that a dog was always sitting underneath, near the chair where the customers sat for their haircuts. So the man asked the barber, "Is that your dog?"

    And the barber replied, "No, he always comes every day. It's not my dog. I don't know whose dog it is."

    Then the customer asked, "So if it's not your dog, you never feed him, right?"

    And the barber said,"No."

    And the customer said, "Then why does he always come here every day?"

    And the barber answered, "He's waiting in case an ear comes off."

    Three Days to See

    BY Helen Keller/海伦.凯勒

    All of us have read thrilling stories in which the hero had only a limited and specified time to live. Sometimes it was as long as a year; sometimes as short as twenty-four hours, but always we were interested in discovering just how the doomed man chose to spend his last days or his last hours. I speak, of course, of free men who have a choice, not condemned criminals whose sphere of activities is strictly delimited.

    Such stories set up thinking, wondering what we should do under similar circumstances.What associations should we crowd into those last hours as mortal beings? What happiness shouldwe find in reviewing the past, what regrets?

    Sometimes I have thought it would be an excellent rule to live each day as if we should dietomorrow. Such an attitude would emphasize sharply the values of life. We should live each daywith a gentleness, a vigor, and a keenness of appreciation which are often lost when time stretchesbefore us in the constant panorama of more days and months and years to come. There are those,of course, who would adopt the epicurean motto of “Eat, drink, and be merry,” most people wouldbe chastened by the certainty of impending death.

    Most of us take life for granted. We know that one day we must die, but usually we picture that day as far in the future, when we are in buoyant health, death is all but unimaginable. We seldom think of it. The days stretch out in an endless vista. So we go about our petty task, hardly aware of our listless attitude towards life.

    The same lethargy, I am afraid, characterizes the use of our faculties and senses. Only the deaf appreciate hearing, only the blind realize the manifold blessings that lie in sight. Particularly does this observation apply to those who have lost sight and hearing in adult life. But those who have never suffered impairment of sight or hearing seldom make the fullest use of these blessed faculties. Their eyes and ears take in all sights and sound hazily, without concentration, and with little appreciation. It is the same old story of not being grateful for what we conscious of health until we are ill.

    I have often thought it would be a blessing if each human being were stricken blind and deaf for a few days at some time during his early adult life. Darkness would make him more appreciative of sight; silence would teach him the joys of sound.

    Now and then I have tested my seeing friends to discover what they see. Recently I was visited by a very good friend who had just returned from a long walk in the woods, and I asked her what she had observed. “Nothing in particular,” she replied. I might have been incredulous had I not been accustomed to such responses, for long ago I became convinced that the seeing see little.

    How was it possible, I asked myself, to walk for an hour through the woods and see nothing worthy of note? I who cannot see find hundreds of things to interest me through mere touch. I feel the delicate symmetry of a leaf. I pass my hands lovingly about the smooth skin of a silver birch,or the rough shaggy bark of a pine. In spring I touch the branches of trees hopefully in search of a bud, the first sign of awakening Nature after her winter’s sleep I feel the delightful, velvety texture of a flower, and discover its remarkable convolutions; and something of the miracle of Nature is revealed to me. Occasionally, if I am very fortunate, I place my hand gently in a small tree and feel the happy quiver of a bird in full song. I am delighted to have cool waters of a brook rush
through my open fingers. To me a lush carpet of pine needles or spongy grass is more welcome than the most luxurious Persian rug. To me the pageant of seasons is a thrilling and unending drama, the action of which streams through my finger tips. At times my heart cries out with longing to see all these things. If I can get so much pleasure from mere touch, how much more beauty must be revealed by sight. Yet, those who have eyes apparently see little. The panorama of color and action fill the world is taken for granted. It is human, perhaps, to appreciate little that which we have and to long for that which we have not, but it is a great pity that in the world of light and the gift of sight is used only as mere convenience rather that as a means of adding fullness to life.

    Oh, the things that I should see if I had the power of sight for three days!

    【中文译文】：

    我们都读过这样一些动人的故事，故事里主人公将不久于人世。长则一年，短则２４小时。但是我们总是很想知道这个即将离开人世的人是决定怎样度过他最后的日子的。当然，我所指的是有权作出选择的自由人，不是那些活动范围受到严格限制的死囚。

    这一类故事会使我们思考在类似的处境下，我们自己该做些什么？在那临终前的几个小时里我们会产生哪些联想？会有多少欣慰和遗憾呢？

    有时我想，把每天都当作生命的最后一天来度过也不失为一个很好的生命法则。这种人生态度使人非常重视人生的价值。每一天我们都应该以和善的态度、充沛的精 力和热情的欣赏来度过，而这些恰恰是在来日方长时往往被我们忽视的东西。当然，有这样一些人奉行享乐主义的座右铭——吃喝玩乐，但是大多数人却不能摆脱死 亡来临的恐惧。

    我们大多数人认为生命理所当然，我们明白总有一天我们会死去，但是我们常常把这一天看得非常遥远。当我们身体强壮时，死亡便成了难以相象的事情了。我们很少会考虑它，日子一天天过去，好像没有尽头。所以我们为琐事奔波，并没有意识到我们对待生活的态度是冷漠的。

    我想我们在运用我们所有五官时恐怕也同样是冷漠的。只有聋子才珍惜听力，只有盲人才能认识到能见光明的幸运。对于那些成年致盲或失陪的人来说尤其如此。但 是那些听力或视力从未遭受损失的人却很少充分利用这些幸运的能力，他们对所见所闻不关注、不欣赏。这与常说的不失去不懂得珍贵，不生病不知道健康可贵的道 理是一样的。

    我常想如果每一个人在他成年的早些时候，有几天成为了聋子或瞎子也不失为一件幸事。黑暗将使他更珍惜光明；沉寂将教他知道声音的乐趣。

    有时我会试探我的非盲的朋友们，想知道他们看见了什么。最近我的一位非常要好的朋友来看我，她刚刚在树林里走了很长时间，我问她看见了什么。“没什么特别 的，”她回答说。如不是我早已习惯了这样的回答，我也许不会轻易相信，因为很久以前我就相信了有眼人看不见什么。

    我问自己在树林中走了一小时，怎么可能什么值得注意的东西都没有看到呢？而我一个盲人仅仅通过触摸就发现了数以百计的有趣的东西。我感到树叶的对称美，用 手摸着白桦树光滑的树皮或是松树那粗糙的厚厚的树皮。春天里我满怀着希望触摸着树枝寻找新芽，那是大自然冬眼后醒来的第一个征象。我感到了花朵的可爱和茸 茸的感觉，发现它层层叠叠地绽开着，大自然的神奇展现在我的面前。当我把手轻轻地放在一棵小树上，如果幸运的话，偶尔会感到歌唱的小鸟欢快的颤动。我会愉 快地让清凉的溪水从手之间流过。对我来说，满地厚厚的松针和松软的草坪比奢华的波斯地毯更惹人喜爱。对我来说四季变换的景色如同一场动人心魄的不会完结的 戏剧，剧中的人物动作从我的指尖流过。我的心不时在呐喊，带着对光明的渴望。既然仅仅通过触摸就能使我获得如此多的喜悦，那么光明定会展示更多美好的事物 啊。可惜的是那些有眼睛的人分明看到很少，整个世界缤纷的色彩和万物的活动都被认为是理所当然。也许不珍惜已经拥有的，想得到还没有得到的是人的特点，但 是在光明的世界里只把视觉用做一种方便的工具，而不是丰富生活的工具，这是令人多么遗憾的事情啊。

    噢，假如我拥有三天光明，我将会看见多少事物啊！

    成功的商务要求自信。当你用第二语言――英语做生意时，很容易语气听起来很不确定。但是不要这么快就放弃!就算你对商务英语的单词不是很确定，你还是可以 让别人听起来你十分了解你正在谈论什么。秘诀就在于你如何开始你的句子。用以下的商务英语句型来着手，看看不同效果何在!
