英语诵读荟萃1

Goldenage金色年华

每个人心目中的英雄不尽相同。

在每个孩子的眼里，父亲则是永远的英雄。

父爱如山，托起孩子的一生；父爱如灯，照亮孩子的一生。

2.Discovermyself

有时候，我们的一点改变可能就是来源于我们身边那些并不干起眼的事物。

3.Anunforgettablechallenge

是朋友，星移斗转情不改；是知音，天涯海角记心怀。

喜怒哀乐，悲欢离合，总有那些事，那些人，那个片段，那一瞬间，难以忘怀……

WhenIwastenyearsold,Ibegantochatwithforeigners.ButIwasveryshy.Gradually,Ibecamemoreandmoreconfidentwithforeigners’help.Thefollowingyear,IwenttoYangzhouwithtwoforeigners.Ibecametheirguide.First,wecameintotheShouxiRiver.Theywantedtolookaroundtheriverbyboat.Itoldthemtheprice.Themwegointotheboat.Whenwelookedoutatthesight,weallfeltthebeautyofthislandscape.Afterthat,theywenttobuysouvenirs.Thesellerscouldn’tspeakEnglish.Thoughitwasveryhard,Itriedmybesttolistentotheirwordscarefullyandtranslatethesentences.Theyboughtsomesouvenirswithmyhelp.Next,wewenttoasmallzoo,andwetooksomephotos.Therewerenotmanyanimals.Whenwefelthungry,wewentoutandhadlunch.Afterlunch,wevisitedsomeoldhouses.TheylearnedmoreaboutChinesehistory.

4.Givingisgetting

付出即是回报。

在生活中我们也应当处处有这样的态度。

5.Alessonlearned-----byLynnLombard

也许在你的童年记忆中，也有这样一伴曾“挺身而出”帮你承担责罚的姐姐。

她给予你的保护，使你补这份浓浓的亲情所感动。

Myfathergatheredustogether.Wesawfromthelookonhisfacethatoneofushaddonesomethingwrong.

6.HelenKeller:

mystory

作为一代强者，海伦*凯勒感动了世界。

《假如给我三天光明》详细描写了她的奋斗历程，其中的一段，描述了她见到她的启蒙老师沙利文之前的内心世界：

憧憬、希冀、忐忑不安……栩栩如生，惟妙惟肖。

7.Thecostofamiracle

一美元零十一分加上一个八岁女孩的信念铸就了一个奇迹，挽救了一个男孩宝贵的生命……

8.Beingamother（I）

我们总是在疲惫或者受伤的时候，想起妈妈，想起妈妈温暖的怀抱；我们也会在异国他乡，想想妈妈的叮咛与唠叨。

但我们却忘记了每天应该抽出一点时间同孤独的她做一些情感交流。

After21yearsofmarriage,mywifewantedmetotakeanotherwomanouttohavedinnerandseeamovie.Shesaid,“Iloveyou,butIknowthiswomanlovesyou,too.”

Theotherwomanthatmywifewantedmetovisitwasmymother.Thedemandsofmyworkandmychildrenhadmademespendlittletimewithher.ThatnightIcalledtoinvitehertohavedinnerandseeamovie.
