A Strange Present One day, when I was 14, my uncle sent me a pink T-shirt from ST. Louis, Missouri as my birthday present. On a beautiful Sunday morning, I wore this pink T-shirt and walked gently to the market. On the way, some boys whistled at me. I became very nervous, so I walked faster and more properly with more decorum, but more and more boy

Vacations in Space Want a ride in a spaceship? It will cost you about 20 million US dollars. At least that’s what Dennis Tito recently paid for a trip to the International Space Station. What if you aren’t rich, but still want to travel in space? Don’t worry. Research supported by NASA might make your dream come true. Scientists are refining a process that, if successful, will enable rockets to take off from the back of an airplane. If people do end up taking vacations in space, don’t worry about finding somewhere to stay. Businessmen like British Richard Branson are already thinking about building hotels out there.
[注释]：
NASA: National Aeronautics and Space Administration (美国) 国家航空航天局;美国航天及太空总署
end up: 结束;告终
Keeping Pleasant In these grim times, weighed down with tension and pressure from the realities of life, many people have lost their sense of humor. They tend to keep a straight face all day long and fail to keep life in perspective. They forget how to smile and finally become physical and mental wrecks. They regard life as a burden, and tend to look on the dark side of things.Well goes a saying, “Laugh, and grow fat.” Laughter releases tension, and smiling helps create a pleasant social atmosphere. And, thus, in a way, a sense of humor is an elixir that helps cure mental diseases. Some patients even improve their physical and mental health by reading humorous stories or watching funny movies. This proves that a sense of humor helps us look at the world in a true and healthy light and makes our life worth living.
[注释]：
grim: rigid 无情的，严酷的
tension: uneasy suspense 紧张(状态)，不安
perspective: subjective evaluation of relative significance; a point of view 观点，评价; in dim bimbo 又笨又坏的女人
The Man I Respect Most My father is the man I respect most. Stern as he may be, he never fails to show his care and consideration. Once I broke a neighbor’s window. Seeing nobody around, I ran away immediately. When Dad came home, he noticed my uneasiness and asked me what had happened.
I could only tell him the truth. Rather than scold me, he praised my honesty and then encouraged me to apologize to our neighbor. I learned from this episode that not only does Dad take care of our health but he also teaches us how to be good citizens. How lucky I am to have such a good father!
[注释]：
stern : severe, strict 严厉的
consideration : careful thought; deliberation 体谅，考虑
uneasiness : 不安
episode : an incident or event that is part of a progression or a larger sequence 插
My Time of Happiness Each Day As a student, most of my time is spent on school work and other school-related activities. Consequently, my time of happiness each day is very limited.
However, this is not to say that I am not happy every day. In fact, I really enjoy coming home from school each evening and having dinner with my family. After dinner, I read or watch some TV with my family. This is a happy time for me every day.
But my happiest time of a day is just before I fall asleep. Lying in bed, I think about all I achieved that day, and it makes me happy to know that the day was full.
[注释]：
consequently : therefore 从而，因此
achieve : to perform or carry out with success; accomplish 完成，达到
Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening 《风雪夜 林边停》是一首著名的诗歌。写的是雪夜美景?写的是守诺如一?写的是 人生不得不向前行?不同的读者会有完全不同的理解。这大概就是文学批评中所说的“接受 美学”的观点吧。
Whose woods these are I think I know,
His house is in the village though.
He will not see me stopping here,
To watch his woods fill up with snow.
My little horse must think it queer,
To stop without a farmhouse near,
Between the woods and frozen lake,
The darkest evening of the year.
He gives his harness bells a shake,
To ask if there is some mistake.
The only other sound’s the sweep,

Home—A Joy Forever Home means a lot to me. “Be it ever so humble, there is no place like home.” I appreciate the warmth of my home, and regard it as one of the brightest and dearest spots on earth. It is the place where I can take refuge whenever I meet with difficulties, failures and even frustrations in my daily life. At home, my dear parents and brothers and sisters will comfort me and cheer me up. And with their concern and encouragement, I will regain my self-confidence and muster up all my strength and courage to face the stern realities of life. To me, home is forever a joy where I can always find love, understanding, care and help.

Summer 夏日晨风，拂过我的脸庞，扰动我的梦想，飞扬在这青春读书的好时光。
I chanced to rise very early one particular morning this summer, and took a walk into the country to divert myself among the fields and meadows, while the green was new, and the flowers in their bloom. As at this season of the year every lane is a beautiful walk, and every hedge full of nosegays, I lost myself, with a great deal of pleasure, among several thickets and bushes that were filled with a great variety of birds, and an agreeable confusion of notes, which formed the pleasantest scene in the world to one who had passed a whole winter in noise and smoke. The freshness of the dews that lay upon everything about me, with the cool breath of the morning, which inspired the birds with so many delightful instincts, created in me the same kind of animal pleasure, and made my heart overflow with such secret emotions of joy and satisfaction as are not to be described or accounted for.
—Joseph Addison, Tulips

Exploring the Oceans
洋世界到底有多少未知的秘密? Ever wonder what lives in the Earth’s waters? Some 300 scientists from 53 different countries are wondering the same thing. For the first time in history, scientists are trying to count how many species of fish, animals and plants live under water.
They are conducting a census of life in the world’s oceans, which cover 70 per cent of the Earth’s surface. The study began in 2000 and is expected to end in 2010, at a cost of US$1 billion. So far, scientists have counted more than 15,000 species of fish and around 200,000 species of animals and plants in the oceans. They expect to find at least another 5,000 species of fish.
Scientists believe that the animals and plants they’ve found so far represent just 10 per cent of the world’s total underwater population. That means that they expect to find almost 2 million species of animals and 英语晨读精华
103 plants by 2010. “Our goal by 2010 is to know as much about life in the oceans as we know about life on land now,” says a marine biologist who is working on the project.
The newly-discovered species are not all new species. Many of them have just never been recorded before. Scientists fear that the growing human population is decreasing the variety of species living in the ocean. They hope the census will help them learn how human activity, such as fishing and agriculture, is affecting the oceans.

Spring is coming, spring is coming,
Birdies, build your nest;
Weave together straw and feather,
Doing each your best. Spring is coming, spring is coming,
Flowers are coming too:

All around is fair,
Shimmer and quiver on the river,
Joy is everywhere.

New Pictures of an Old Universe 这段科技文章看似复杂难懂，其实不难。读的同时不妨仔细分析这类文章的特点，这对 于在考试中阅读理解同类文章一定有帮助。
For thousands of years humans have wondered how and when the universe first began. Now, thanks to some photographs taken by Wilkinson Microwave Anisotropy Probe (WMAP), scientists are much closer to understanding, even seeing, the universe in its beginning years. This is all possible thanks to the WMAP satellite in orbit about one million miles above Earth. The satellite is specially designed to record one kind of cosmic energy: microwave radiation. It can use this radiation to show us what the universe looked like 13.3 billion years ago!
Wait a minute ... how can this satellite show us a picture of the universe billions of years ago? The Big Bang created the universe in a huge explosion, and at the same time it created a specific field of radiation—called the cosmic microwave background, or CMB. This CMB still lingers in the universe today. What the satellite actually does is take pictures of the CMB.
So what did scientists learn from these new pictures? First, they learned that stars formed very soon— merely 200 million years— after the Big Bang. And they were able to confirm estimates of the universe’s age: it was born about 13.7 billion years ago. This is the age that 英语晨读精华

Three Days to See 下面的文字摘选自海伦·凯勒的自传《假如给我三天光明》。海伦虽然自幼丧失了视力 和听觉，但却是一个生活在黑暗中而给人类带来光明的女性。她在1904 年获得学位，成为 优秀的讲师和作家。“我要把别人眼睛所看见的光明当作我的太阳，别人的耳朵听见的音乐 当作我的乐曲，别人嘴角的微笑当作我的快乐。”她接受了命运的挑战，获得了超越自己的 喜悦。我们为之感动的不仅是文字本身的优美和其中所含的真情，还包括字里行间所反映的 那颗伟大心灵。
Most of us, however, 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 tasks, hardly aware of our listless attitude toward life.„
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 英语晨读精华
126 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 reposes, 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 the 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 on a small tree and feel the happy quiver of a bird in full song. I am delighted to have the cool waters of a brook rush through my open finger. 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.

四、人生的瓶子
一天，时间管理专家为一群商学院的学生讲课。
他现场做了演示，给学生们留下了一生都难以磨灭的印象。 站在那些高智商高学历的学生前面，他说，我们来做个小测验。拿出一个一加仑的广口瓶放在他面前的桌上。随后，他取出一堆拳头大小的石块，仔细地一块放进玻璃瓶。直到石块高出瓶口，再也放不下了，他问道：“瓶子满了?”所有学生应道：“满了!”。时间管理专家反问：“真的?”他伸手从桌下拿出一桶砾石，倒了一些进去，并敲击玻璃瓶壁使砾石填满下面石块的间隙。“现在瓶子满了吗?”他第二次问道。但这一次学生有些明白了，“可能还没有”，一位学生应道。“很好!”专家说。他伸手从桌下拿出一桶沙子，开始慢慢倒进玻璃瓶。沙子填满了石块和砾石的所有间隙。他又一次问学生：“瓶子满了吗?”“没满!”学生们大声说。他再一次说：“很好!”然后他拿过一壶水倒进玻璃瓶直到水面与瓶口平。抬头看着学生，问道：“这个例子说明什么?”一个心急的学生举手发言：“无论你的时间表多么紧凑，如果你确实努力，你可以做更多的事情!”“不!”时间管理专家说，“那不是它真正的意思，这个例子告诉我们：如果你不是先放大石块，那你就再也不能把它放进瓶子了。那么，什么是你生命中的大石头呢?与你爱的人共渡时光，你的信仰、教育、梦想?切切记得先去处理这些大石块，否则，一辈子你都不能做!”
那么今晚，或许是今晨，你正在阅读这篇短文，可曾试着问自己这个问题：我今生的“大石头”是什么?然后，请你把它们先放进你人生的瓶子。宁可因梦想而忙碌但不要因忙碌而失去梦想!

五、只要弯一弯腰
夜深了，一位巴格达商人走在黑漆漆的山路上，突然，有个神秘的声音传来：“弯下腰，请多捡些小石子，明天会有用的!”商人决定执行这一指令，便弯腰捡起几颗石子。到了第二天，当商人从袋中掏出“石子”看时，才发现那所谓的“石子”原来是一块块亮晶晶的宝石!自然，也正是这些宝石，使他立即变得后悔不迭：天!昨晚怎么就没有多捡些呢? 这是科学家巴甫洛众讲的一个故事。尤其发人深省的是，他在讲完故事后说：“教育就是这么回事——当我们长大成人之后，才会发现以前学的科学知识是珍贵的宝石，但同时，我们也会觉得可惜，因为我们学的毕竟太少了!”
不是吗?教育送给别人明明是瑰丽的“宝石”，可总有人因为弯腰太累视而不见，结果白白地错过了许多机会。
还有个故事更意味深长，是歌德在他的叙事歌谣里讲的。耶稣带着他的门徒彼得远行，途中发规一块破烂的马蹄铁，耶稣就让彼得把它捡起来。不料彼得懒得弯腰假装没听见，耶稣没说什么就自己弯腰捡起马蹄铁，用它从铁匠那儿换来三文钱，用这钱买了十八颗樱桃。出了城，二人继续前进，经过的全是茫茫的荒野。耶稣猜到彼得渴得够呛，就让藏于袖中的樱桃悄悄地掉出一颗，彼得一见，赶紧捡起来吃。耶稣边走边丢，彼得也就狼狈地弯了十八次腰。于是耶稣笑着对他说：“要是你刚才弯一次腰，就不会在后来没完没了地弯腰。小事不干，将来就会在更小的事情上操劳。”
不去弯腰或疏于弯腰，是糊涂;而耻于弯腰者，肯定是傻子!信念是生命的脊梁。一个人活着，无论外界的环境多么恶劣，只要心中信念的灯亮着，所有的绝境和困苦都算不了什么，都不是生命的绝境。
廿
六、珍惜自己
人世间有许多东西是值得珍惜的，如家庭的温暖，朋友的友谊，师长的教诲，而最值得珍惜的却是自己：自己的情感、意志、青春、奋斗。 人生在世，终身与自己相处，打交道最多的是自己，但许多人却不懂得珍惜自己。在顺境时，常常将自己估计过高;而在逆境时，又往往将自己估计得过低。
珍惜自己，首先要正确认识自己，做一个冷静的现实主义者。既了解自己的优势，也知道自己的不足，对自己有清醒的认识。
珍惜自己，就是认识自己的才能，以才能昭示力量，给生命和生活注入自信，会使你的工作更成功，生活更充实。
人生之舟不可能一帆风顺，面对生活的挑战，你无法逃避，只有珍惜自己，才能相信自己，保护自己，在竞争中立于不败之地。
只有珍惜自己，你才能把握自我，在独立的追求中创造生命的价值。
只有珍惜自己，你才能欣赏自己的工作，拥有一个美好的精神世界。
人生只有三天：昨天、今天和明天。昨天是回忆，今天是人生的中心，只有抓紧今天，才能在明天生活得更美好。
生命中的每一瞬间，过去的都将永不再来，人生的每一次经历，都是生命中不可再得的体验，懂得珍惜自己并不是一件容易的事。生活着、工作着、奋斗着，总是美好的事情。惟有珍惜自己，才会创造出值得珍重的珍贵的日子。
要珍惜自己，就要欣赏自己，金无足赤，人无完人。只有这样，无论顺境逆境，你都能坦然面对，正确把握自己。 芸芸众生，活在人世，心境各异。许多的痛苦都是因为不好的心情造成的。珍惜自己，豁达处世，以平和的心境直面人生，结果便会大不一样。
珍惜自己，就能在纷繁的大千世界里保持一颗平常心，不人云亦云，随波逐流。
珍惜自己，便拥有一份好的心情，能化干戈为玉帛，化疾病为健康，甚至化险为夷。
珍惜自己，学会运用自己的长处，及时把握机遇，这是改变命运的最大财富。
珍惜自己，是消除自卑，重塑自我，参与竞争，勇于尝试的有力后盾。
珍惜自己，生命的真谛就在于坚持与奋斗，在不断努力之中，获得和保持这种心境，你就会拥有潇洒的人生。短暂人生，百般滋味，余韵绵长，人生的辛劳中包含着许多痛苦，才有闪亮的年华、光辉的业绩。珍惜自己吧，享受人生的成功与失败、欢乐与痛苦，这都是人生中最闪亮的经历，是永恒的回忆。
珍惜时代，珍惜生活，珍惜生命，让我们都来珍惜自己吧!

七、碗不翻
一个孩子拿着大碗去买酱油。两角钱的酱油装满了碗，提子里还剩了一些。这孩子把碗翻了过来，用碗底装回剩下的酱油。到了家，他对妈妈说：“碗里装不下酱油，我把剩下的用碗底装回来了。” 孩子期望得到赞扬，他多聪明，善用碗的全部。而妈妈却说：“孩子你真傻。”
当年妈妈讲这个故事的时候，我弄不明白这个孩子傻在哪里，但没问，否则我妈会说：“你也真傻。”过了30年，我才明白这个故事的含义，亦明白故事的主角乃是我。如今，我的生活恰如捧着一个倒扣着的碗，碗底里浅浅地漾着一点东西，即我写过和编过的零散文章。碗里是空空的，里面的东西已经泼洒光了。同时我不知我曾经泼洒了什么，但必可珍惜。
故事的第二部分是：妈妈：“孩子，两角钱就买这么点酱油吗?”孩子很得意，说：“妈妈，这面还有呢!”他把碗翻过来，碗底的酱油于是也洒了。
无论到了什么时候，我都不会把碗翻过来，去看另一面盛着什么，而使仅有的一点东西都洒在地上。无论，碗的另一面藏着什么样的诱惑。

八、宁静人生
为了逃避生活的喧嚣，摆脱人生的烦恼，世界上有千千万万的人在寻求宁静。有人远离城市和人群，跑到荒山野林或孤岛上去;有的深居简出，躲进小家成一统，不管别人门前雪;更有的人到宗教境界中去寻心灵的宁静。
宁静人生是对人生的一种开悟，其美妙绝伦不仅在于外在生活的平静，而且在于内心的宁静。所谓心平如镜，就是这种人生最好的写照。心灵宁静，人生就犹如明镜一样平光洁亮，世界上的万事万物都会被摄入其中，映于其上，非常清晰可见，细致入微。同时，它又不至于扰乱人的思绪，给人生带来苦恼和忧烦。但是，宁静难得。
宁静源于内心，但是它的敌人也源于内心，差不多和它是同根所生。细细说来，宁静有五大敌人，这就是嫉妒之心、功利之心、贪婪之心、骄傲之心和野心。
有野心的人，肯定得不到宁静，因为他总是树立一种高不可攀的目标，非得要不断拼搏才行。有野心，肯定对自己的处境不满意，而不满则永远得不到宁静。心灵的宁静，首先得有一种对人生的满足感，不企求更高生活目标，只图自己一日三餐，心灵保持自由自在。
贪婪之心则来自欲望，欲壑难填，贪得无厌。有的人终日被欲望搅得心神不安，躁动不已。得之，则心花怒放，得意忘形，手舞足蹈;不得之，则朝思暮想，劳心劳神进行策划;如此怎么能得心灵的平静呢?
嫉妒之心更是人心恶念丛生的根源之一。它会像毒蛇一样吞噬着人的心，然后再把毒液吐向别人。
功利之心，更是人心疲惫的重要原因，老是不断计较自己的得失，为一分一毫费尽心思，忽喜忽忧，心理一点都无超脱，人生也就根本无平静而言。
骄傲之心得时时处处保护自己，为自己辩护。他在看不起别人、指责他人的同时，必定也会招来许多不愉快的回报，人生必不平静。
坏就坏在这五大敌人都来自人之内心，所以克服它们很不容易。而人好像生来就是不宁静的动物，就以克服基督教都很难救人，因为人有原罪。一个生来就有罪的人，如何能心灵宁静呢?倒是佛家的四大皆空比较贴近些，但是要人从七情六欲中解脱出来，也颇为艰难。
好在还有自然的恩赐，人可以在大自然中享受片刻或永久的宁静。这种宁静也是一种交流，但是已超脱了功利、贪婪、自私、骄傲和野心，就像李白《独坐敬亭山》中所描叙的境界：众鸟高飞尽，孤云独去闲。相看两不厌，只有敬亭山。

九、月圆是画，月缺是诗
很多时候，独守明月。月对于我，已经不再是月，月圆时，我想到了圆满，这不足为奇;奇怪的是，月缺时，我却能够等待着团圆，我甚至不在意是不是遥遥无期。我真能理解有人怎么可以感受得到“月下独酌”的乐趣，有了月，我不用去承受倚窗独望的孤单。
心想有片宁静的天，于是我不自觉的期盼着静谧的夜晚，我只有在独自享受那如水的月色时，才会沉静得心在飘摇身若悬空，甚至感觉不到自己的存在。一而再再而三的遥望浩月，我的心与空灵结缘。
想那月，盈亏有期，苏轼的“人有悲欢离合，月有阴晴圆缺”已然成为绝唱，而我，宁愿不去感觉那月带来的悲、离、阴、缺，在我心中，只要是月，只要我们还有月，那就是美好，因为我知道，聚散皆如酒的道理，都是一样的诗情画意，都是一样的馥郁芳香。因为我相信，月亮的脸永远不会改变，月亮没有风烛残年!
走过了许许多多的风风雨雨，改变了该改变的和不该改变的一切，很多珍贵的不能再珍贵的东西也随风飘散于九霄云外，我甚至于抓不到它的边缘，惟有月光，始终虔诚的挂在我生命的星空，伴随我孤单的身影和我一同走过我的世界，真的很满足了啊，有了月，我可以踏实的去走，走过那属于我自己的春夏秋冬。
我抖落了一身的尘埃，再看我的天空，那里始终高悬着一轮明月呀。一生一世，在无数个阴晴圆缺中度过，而那月，依旧高悬在我们的心底。不管盈也好，亏也罢，它只是恪守着它不变的轮回，那月，总能让我心有所系。
不知道是那月属于我呢，还是我属于那月，月色充盈时，我因它成画，月色残缺时，我因它赋诗。掬月在手，我相信了月带给我的吉运，不管月之盈亏，洒向我的永远是一片皎洁。
月圆是画，月缺是诗。即使风雨打湿了我生命的宣纸，终归成不了画，但还可以入诗。

十、尊严
活着的珊瑚生活在幽深无比的海底。在海水的怀抱里，它是柔软的，所有小小的触角都在水中轻轻地一张一合，似乎每一阵流水的波动都在柔柔地拨动着它的心弦。在寂寞宁静的海底，珊瑚就像是一个沐浴在爱情之中的女子，每一丝每一缕都是生命，每一分每一寸都是光彩。可是，如果采珊瑚的人出现了，如果那双习惯截取生命的手把珊瑚带走，毫不怜惜地把它带出水面，那么这时珊瑚就会变得无比的坚硬。在远离大海的灿烂的阳光下，珊瑚只是一具惨白僵硬的骨骼。
有一种水獭，它有着令世界惊叹的美丽的皮毛。在阳光下，那是深紫色的，像缎子一样，闪烁着华美、神秘而又高贵的光泽。如果你在林间看到它，如果你看到它静静地栖息在水边的岩石上，你也会惊诧，造物主原来是如此的神奇，他竟然造出这样完美的有生命的宝石。可是水獭的美丽却给它带来了灭顶之灾。总有一些人类，想把它的皮毛剥下来，制成帽子，戴在某位绅士的头上;制成大衣，裹住某位淑女丰美的身躯。因为这样，水獭就可以变成金钱。于是，有人带着猎枪闯进了水獭的家园，在阳光下，他眯起眼睛，扣动了扳机。枪响过后，水獭死了。让人奇怪的是，水獭的美丽也消失了，躺在岩石上的只是一只平凡的水獭，它的皮毛干涩粗糙，毫无光泽。
谁都知道麝香，那是名贵的药材，也是珍贵的香料，而实际上，麝香不过是雄麝脐下的分泌物而已。想要获得麝香，就必须捕杀雄麝。雄麝生活在密林深处，身手矫健，来去如风，如果不是一流的猎手，根本难以捕捉它的踪迹。而就是找到了雄麝，取得麝香也是极困难的事。有经验的老猎手说：“靠近雄麝时，千万要屏息凝神，不能让雄麝感觉到你的存在，否则，它会转过头来，在你射杀它之前，咬破自己的香囊。”
在自然界里，有一些生物比人类还要有尊严。
当生命遭到无情的践踏时，它们会用改变、会用放弃、会用死亡捍卫自己的尊严。

第四篇：一滴水美文
一滴水，伸长了脖子，就变成了河;扩了扩胸，就变成了海;再做几个俯卧撑，波涛就澎湃了，汹涌了。一滴水站直了身子，就是喷泉;长了翅膀，就变成了雨。一滴水，在草尖上，叫露;在额头上，叫汗;在眼角，叫泪……把一滴又一滴的水，组织起来，集合起来，并用堤坝来约束它，水库就形成了;给它微风，就有了波浪，给它飓风，就有了惊涛。
对于一个人来说，最早接触的一滴水，是母亲的乳汁。身体孱弱的婴儿，吮吸着母亲的乳头，便茁壮了，一滴水，到底哺育了多少个嗷嗷待哺的生灵?
现在我就安排一滴水，从高原的冰岭雪峰中抽出身子，沿着河道顺流而下。经过绿树环抱的两岸，再经过生满苔藓的山涧，它小小的身子，把天映蓝，把风擦亮，把鸟鸣洗得更幽……按常规，这滴水应该顺顺当当地扑进大海的怀抱。但是，在行进的过程中，流失的黄土使它混浊，腐烂的树叶使它变得污秽。恰如一个人，在成长的过程中，被不断地伤害，于是，这一滴水，就愤怒了，它在河道里狂躁地跑来跑去，对着堤啊岸啊什么的，一个劲地咆哮。一个喜欢恶作剧的孩子，与礁石合谋，使船搁浅，与风携手，使岸溃决……人类，也许这时才发觉，一滴忍无可忍的水，足以淹没他们的锦绣家园。
种子如果与一滴水攀上了亲戚，田野就绿了。那些水稻、大豆、高粱，在幽幽星光里，作挺拔状、青翠状、成熟状，满眼的深邃与辽阔。月亮，伸出纤纤小手，把一滴水洗呀洗的，直至洗成一堆碎碎的银子——这是一堆可以兑换蝉鸣、蛙唱的银子，这是一堆可以把蝉鸣与蛙唱糅合成清新、宁静的银子。
在迷蒙的月光下，我要说服一滴水嫁给红脸膛的高粱。把坛子洗净，这是另一种形式的洞房，再掺入浓稠的时间，酒，就这样酿成了。
一滴水，一旦变成了酒，它就能从你的胸膛里像搬组合家具一样地搬出炽热与刚烈、侠骨与柔情、赤心与真诚……
一滴水，即使睡着了，也是一只守望大地的眼睛。它的清澈、它的晶莹、它的透明，谁忍心伤害呢?
善待一滴水吧。谁若把它的心伤透了，弄寒了——寒成了一块冰，我就找谁算账。
第五篇：学会低头美文
我们每个人不管是什么身份，什么地位，在一生之中，都不可能不说错话，不办错事，因为谁也不是完人，不是“足赤的金子”，不是“无瑕的白玉”。一位先生所供职的小城，地处四季如春的云南省西部。在最寒冷的冬季，也难遇上下雪的光景。但有一年的气候与往年有些不同，眼看着春天都快要跨进门槛了，天空中却意外地飘起了纷纷扬扬的雪花，雪花中还夹杂着米粒般大小的冰雹。从老城通往郊区的道路两边，铺排着两行已经上了年岁的行道树，东面的一排是银槐树，西边的一排是圣诞树。一夜的飞雪，已经把两排行道树全都装扮成了银装素裹的玉树琼枝。为了拍几张雪景的照片，他一大早便赶到了郊外。就在他选择最佳拍摄角度时，却惊奇地发现：道路西边的圣诞树，由于承受不了厚厚的积雪，昔日绿意婆娑的树冠，竟然被压折了许多枝丫，弄得满地都是零落的断枝残叶。而
眼前的景象，让人由此而领悟到了一个处世做人的道理：一味地刚强，一味地硬撑，只会给自己带来不必要的伤害甚至牺牲。只有做到刚柔互济，懂得“低头”，才能保护自己，立于不败。曾有人问大哲学家苏格拉底：“据说你是天底下最有学问的人，那我想请教一个问题：请你告诉我，天与地之间的高度到底是多少?”苏格拉底微笑着。答道：“3尺!”“胡说，我们每个人都有四五尺高，天与地的高度只有3尺，那人还不把天给戳出许多窟窿?”苏格拉底微笑着说：“所以，凡是高度超过3尺的人，要能够长久地立足于天地之间，就要懂得低头呀!”苏格拉底可谓是深得人生的真谛：懂得低头。生命的重荷负载过多，就低一低头，卸去那份多余的沉重。面对自己的错误和不足，也要学会“低头”。只有学会低头，才能正视自己的错误。
既然每个人无法避免犯错，那错误就不是什么大不了的事情。犯错并不可怕，只要学会低头而后知道自省，就能避免铸成大错以至抱憾终身。眼睛朝上，目空一切而从不懂得“低头”看路的人，终有一天难免要摔跟头，甚至要落入陷阱或误入歧途。总是头颅高昂，逞强好胜而不懂得弯腰的人，总会撞上挫折的“门框”碰得个头破血流。只有学会低头，懂得低头并且敢于低头的人，才会平安无事，一路走好。
