适合初中⽣的英语美⽂：Advice to Youth
Being told I would be expected to talk here, I inquired what sort of talk I ought to make. They said it should be somethingsuitable to youth-something didactic, instructive, or something in the nature of good advice. Very well. I have a few things inmy mind which I have often longed to say for the instruction of the young; for it is in one's tender early years that such thingswill best take root and be most enduring and most valuable. First, then. I will say to you my young friends -- and I say itbeseechingly, urgingly -- Always obey your parents, when they are present. This is the best policy in the long run, because if you don't, they willmake you. Most parents think they know better than you do, and you can generally make more by humoring that superstitionthan you can by acting on your own better judgment.
Be respectful to your superiors, if you have any, also to strangers, and sometimes to others. If a person offend you, andyou are in doubt as to whether it was intentional or not, do not resort to extreme measures; simply watch your chance and hithim with a brick. That will be sufficient. If you shall find that he had not intended any offense, come out frankly and confessyourself in the wrong when you struck him; acknowledge it like a man and say you didn't mean to. Yes, always avoid
violence; in this age of charity and kindliness, the time has gone by for such things. Leave dynamite to the low and unrefined. Go to bed early, get up early- this is wise. Some authorities say get up with the sun; some say get up with one thing,
others with another. But a lark is really the best thing to get up with. It gives you a splendid reputation with everybody to knowthat you get up with the lark; and if you get the right kind of lark, and work at him right, you can easily train him to get up at halfpast nine, every time -- it's no trick at all.
适合初中⽣的英语美⽂：Golden Fruit
Of the fruits of the year I give my vote to the orange.
In the first place it is a perennial -- if not in actual fact, at least in the greengrocer's shop. On the days when dessert is aname given to a handful of chocolates and a little preserved ginger, when macedoine de fruits is the title bestowed on twoprunes and a piece of rhubarb, then the orange, however sour, comes nobly to the rescue; and on those other days of plentywhen cherries and strawberries and raspberries, and gooseberries riot together upon the table, the orange, sweeter thanever, is still there to hold its own. Bread and butter, beef and mutton, eggs and bacon, are not more necessary to an orderexistence than the orange.
It is well that the commonest fruit should be also the best. Of the virtures of the orange I have not room fully to speak. Ithas properties of health giving, as that it cures influenza and establishes the complexion. It is clean, for whoever handles iton its way to your table, but handles its outer covering, its top coat, which is left in the hall. It is round, and forms an excellentsubstitute with the young for a cricket ball. The pip can be flicked at your enemies, and quite a small piece of peel makes aslide for an old gentleman.
But all this would count nothing had not the orange such delightful qualities of the taste. I dare not let myself go upon thissubject. I am a slave to its sweetness. I grudge every marriage in that it means a fresh supply of orange blossom, the promiseof so much golden fruit cut short. However, the world must go on.
Yet with the orange we do live year in and year out. That speaks well for the orange. The fact is that there is an honestyaboutthe orange which appeals to all of us. If it is going to be bad -- for the best of us are bad sometimes -- it begins to be badfrom the outside, not from the inside. How many a pear which presents a blooming face to the world is rotten at the core. Howmany an innocent-looking apple is harbouring a worm in the bud. But the orange had no secret faults. Its outside is a mirror ofits inside, and if you are quick you can tell the shopman so before he slips it into the bag.
适合初中⽣的英语美⽂：The English humour
Fun seems to be the possession of the English race. Fun is JohnBulll's idea of humour, and there is no
intellectualjudgment in fun. Everybody understands it be-cause it is practical. More than that, it unites allclasses and
sweetens even political life. To studythe elemental form of English humour, you must look to the school-boy. It begins with
the practical joke, and unless there is something of his natureabout it, it is never humour to an Englishman. Inan Englishhousehold, fun is going all the time. The entire house resounds witn it. The father comes home and the whole familycontribute to the amusement; puns, humorous uses of words, little things that are meaningless nonsense, if you like, flyround, and every one enjoys them thoroughly for just what they are. The Scotch are devoid ofthis trait, and the Americansseem to be, too.
If I had the power to give humour to the nations I would not give them drollery, for that isimpractical; I would not give themwit, for that isaristocratic, and many minds cannot grasp it; but Iwould be contented to deal out fun, which has nointellectualelement, no subtlety, belongs to oldand young, educated and uneducated alike, and isthe natural form of the humour of theEnglishman.
Let me tell you why the Englishman speaks only one language. He believes with the strongest conviction that his owntongue is the one that all people ought to speak and will come in time to speak, so what is the use of learning any other? Hebelieves, too, that he is appointed by Providenceto be a governor of all the rest of the human race. From our Scottish
standpoint we can never see an Englishman without thinking that there is oozing from every pore of his body the convictionthat he belongs to a governing race. It has not been his de-sire that large portions of the world should be under his care, butas they have been thrust upon him in the proceedings of a wise Providence, he must discharge his duty. This theory hasn'tendeared him to others of his kind, but that isn't amatter that concerns him. He doesn't learn anyother language because heknows that he could speak it only so imperfectly that other people would laugh at him, and it would never do that a person ofhis importance in the scheme of the universe should be made the object of ridicule.
