　　英語小故事二

Big Rocks One day, an expert in time management was speaking to a group of students and, to drive home a point, used an illustration those students will never forget.

As he stood in front of the group of overachievers he said, "OK, time for a quiz." He pulled out a one-gallon, wide-mouth jar and set it on the table in front of him. He also produced about a dozen fist-sized rocks and carefully placed them, one at a time, into the jar. When the jar was filled to the top and no more rocks would fit inside, he asked, "Is this jar full?"

Everyone in the class yelled, "Yes." The time management expert replied, "Really?" He reached under the table and pulled out a bucket of gravel. He dumped some gravel in and shook the jar, causing pieces of gravel to work themselves down into the spaces between the big rocks. He then asked the group once more, "Is this jar full?"

By this time the class was on to him. "Probably not," one of them answered. "Good!" he replied. He reached under the table and brought out a bucket of sand. He started dumping the sand in the jar and it went into all of the spaces left between the rocks and the gravel. Once more he asked the question, "Is this jar full?"

"No!" the class shouted. Once again he said, "Good." Then he grabbed a pitcher of water and began to pour it in until the jar was filled to the brim. Then he looked at the class and asked, "What is the point of this illustration?" One eager student raised his hand and said, "The point is, no matter how full your schedule is, if you try really hard you can always fit some more things in it!"

"No," the speaker replied, "That"s not the point. The truth this illustration teaches us is if you don"t put the big rocks in first, you"ll never get them in at all. What are the "big rocks" in your life? Time with your loved ones, your education, your dreams, a worthy cause, teaching or mentoring others? Remember to put these big rocks in first or you"ll never get them in at all." So, tonight, or in the morning, when you are reflecting on this short story, ask yourself this question: What are the "big rocks" in my life?

一天，時間管理專家為一羣學生講課。他現場做了演示，給學生們留下了一生都難以磨滅的印象。

站在那些高智商高學歷的學生前面，他説：“我們來做個小測驗”，拿出一個一加侖的廣口瓶放在他面前的桌上。隨後，他取出一堆拳頭大小的石塊，仔細地一塊放進玻璃瓶。直到石塊高出瓶口，再也放不下了，他問道：“瓶子滿了?”

所有學生應道：“滿了!”。時間管理專家反問：“真的?”他伸手從桌下拿出一桶礫石，倒了一些進去，並敲擊玻璃瓶壁使礫石填滿下面石塊的間隙。“現在瓶子滿了嗎?”他第二次問道。

但這一次學生有些明白了，“可能還沒有”，一位學生應道。“很好!”專家説。他伸手從桌下拿出一桶沙子，開始慢慢倒進玻璃瓶。沙子填滿了石塊和礫石的所有間隙。他又一次問學生：“瓶子滿了嗎?”

“沒滿!”學生們大聲説。他再一次説：“很好!”然後他拿過一壺水倒進玻璃瓶直到水面與瓶口平。抬頭看着學生，問道：“這個例子説明什麼?”一個心急的學生舉手發言：“無論你的時間多少，如果你確實努力，你可以做更多的事情!”

“不!”時間管理專家説，“那不是它真正的意思，這個例子告訴我們：如果你不是先放大石塊，那你就再也不能把它放進瓶子了。那麼，什麼是你生命中的大石頭呢?也許是你的道德感、你的夢想?還有你的---切切記得先去處理這些大石塊，否則，一輩子你都不能做!”我們可曾問過自己這個問題：人一生的“大石頭”是什麼?找出自己人生的“大石頭”。

被稱為美國人之父的富蘭克林，一生功績卓絕，這與他的一次拜訪不無關係。

一次，富蘭克林到一位前輩家拜訪。一進門，他的頭就狠狠地撞在了門框上，疼得他一邊不住地用手揉搓，一邊看着比正常標準低矮的門。出來迎接他的前輩看到他這副樣子，笑笑説：

“很痛吧?可是，這將是你今天來訪問我的最大收穫。一個人要想平安無事地活在世上，就必須時時刻刻記住‘低頭’。這也是我要教你的事情，不要忘記了”

富蘭克林把這次拜訪看成最大的收穫，牢牢忘記住了前輩的'教導，並把它列入他一生的生活準則之中。

謙虛謹慎是做人的美德。一個成熟的人，有成就的人，必備此種品格，宜低頭、忍讓，而非自高自大。這也許是許多成功人士之美德。

　　英語小故事五

It is a truth that everyone love the success, and no one likes failure. But all the people should know about the hard working behind a big success.

In my opinion, we shouldn"t focus on the result of the thing but concentrate on the progress. I have exprienced a thing that I will not forget it forever. Two years ago, I attended an English exam, but I failed. I felt quite upset in a while, but at that time, my English teacher encouraged me to keep going. I started to remember the strange words and then read a lot of English textbooks. Finally, I realized I have overcome the fear about learning English. I began to like this lesson and also made a good score in the final exam.

This could call for a success, but I always remember the efforts I have made. Even though I enjoyed the result, I have learned the lessons about how to achieve it.

這是一個事實，每個人都喜歡成功而不喜歡失敗。 但是每個人都應該知道一個成功後面巨大的付出。

在我看來，我們不能注重於事情的結果，而是專注於過程。 我有過一個我永遠無法忘記的事情。 兩年前，我參加了一個英語考試，但是我失敗了。 有一陣我感覺很沮喪，但是那時，我的英語老鼓勵我繼續前行。 我從記單詞開始，然後讀英語課本。 最後我意識到我已經克服了對英語學習的恐怖。 我開始喜歡這個課程，並在最終考試中取得了好成績。

這個可以稱之為一次成功，但是我總記得我所做的努力。雖然我喜歡結果，但是我學習到了怎樣才能成功的經驗。
