A Lifelong Career【学习：一生的事业】 As food is to the body， so is learning to the Our bodies grow and muscles develop with the intake of adequate nutritious Likewise， we should keep learning day by day to maintain our keen mental power and expand our intellectual Constant learning supplies us with inexhaustible fuel for driving us to sharpen our power of reasoning， analysis， and Learning incessantly is the surest way to keep pace with the times in the information age， and an infallible warrant of success in times of Once learning stops， vegetation sets It is a common fallacy to regard school as the only workshop for the acquisition of On the contrary， learning should be a never-ending process， from the cradle to the With the world ever changing so fast， the cease from learning for just a few days will make a person lag What's worse， the animalistic instinct dormant deep in our subconsciousness will come to life， weakening our will to pursue our noble ideal， sapping our determination to sweep away obstacles to our success and strangling our desire for the refinement of our Lack of learning will inevitably lead to the stagnation of the mind， or even worse， its fossilization， Therefore， to stay mentally young， we have to take learning as a lifelong 学习之于心灵，就像食物之于身体一样。摄取了适量的营养食物，我们的身体得以生长而肌肉得以发达。同样地，我们应该日复一日不断地学习以保持我们敏锐的心智能力，并扩充我们的智力容量。不断的学习提供我们用不尽的燃料，来驱使我们磨利我们的推理、分析和判断的能力。持续的学习是在信息时代中跟时代并驾齐驱的最稳当的方法，也是在变动的世代中成功的可靠保证。 一旦学习停止，单调贫乏的生活就开始了。视学校为汲取知识的唯一场所是种常见的谬误。相反地，学习应该是一种无终止的历程，从生到死。由于世界一直快速地在变动，只要学习停顿数日就将使人落后。更糟的是，蛰伏在我们潜意识深处的兽性本能就会复活，削弱我们追求高贵理想的意志，弱化我们扫除成功障碍的决心，而且扼杀我们净化我们人格的欲望。缺少学习将不可避免地导致心灵的停滞，甚至更糟地，使其僵化。因此，为了保持心理年轻，我们必须将学习当作一生的事业。heavy shoolwork【课业繁重】 In my opinion， the schoolwork now being assigned to high school students is too While it is true that students need to study， they need other things as well if they are to grow into healthy and well-rounded High should be allowed more time for Plying is not wasting time， as some It gives them physical exercise， and also exercise their Which tends to be stifled by too much Finally， the pressure put on high school students by excessive schoolwork can cause serious stress， which is unhealthy physically and I do not advocate the elimination of I do think， however， that a reduction of the current heavy load would be beneficial to students and to the society as a 我认为目前高中生的课业实在太重了，虽然说学生的确应当念书，但是要想长大成为健全的人，他门还需要一些其它的东西，所以应该给高中生较多从事娱乐的时间。娱乐并不如某些人所想的，是在浪费时间，它可以让学生锻炼身体，发挥被繁重课业扼杀的想象力。此外，繁重的课业加诸在高中生身上的压力可能引起严重的情绪紧张，这对身心都有害。我并非主张废除学校课业，但是我认为减轻目前繁重的课业对于学生和整个社会都是有益的。 Time【时间】 Lost time is never found This is something which I learned very clearly last I spent so much time fooling around that my grades began to I finally realized that something had to be It was time for a Now I have a new plan for using my time I have set my alarm clock ahead half an This will give me a head start on the I have also decided to keep a log of what I do and when I do Looking back on what I’ve done will give me some ideas on how to reorganize my 时光一去不复返，这是我上学期清楚学到的教训。我浪费很多时间四处游荡，以致于我的成绩开始退步。最后我终于了解到我必须有所作为；该是痛改前非的时候了。 现在我有一个明智运用时间的新方法。我已将闹钟早拨半小时，这将使我这一天的作息提前开始。我也决定将我所做的一切及做这些事的时间记录下来。回顾我所做的事情会启发我如何重新安排我的时间。Work and Play【工作与娱乐】 Work and play do not contradict each other; in fact， they complement each As the saying goes， "All work and no play makes Jack a dull " A life burdened with work leads you nowhere， for you would get tired and bored with your daily routine On the other hand， proper recreation will relieve the tension and discomfort of our monotonous life because it offers you various ways to let out your pent-up What I usually do to relax after school is jogging and seeing Usually I don't spare time for exercise， but I value the physical education class at Jogging several rounds in the field certainly relieves the day's On weekends， I'll catch the morning movie for my visual I feel revived and energetic for another week's work- 工作与娱乐并不互相冲突，事实上，它们之间的关系还相辅相成。有句格言说：「整日工作而没有休闲娱乐，会令人变得沉闷乏味。」被工作重担压得喘不过气来的生活，将使你一事无成，因为你将对一成不变的例行公事感到厌烦。由另一方面来说，适度的娱乐活动能提供各种管道，来渲泄你被压抑的情绪，减轻单调生活中的紧张与不悦。 放学之后，我最常做的休闲活动，便是慢跑与看电影。通常我并不特地拨出时间来做运动，但是我很重视学校的体育课。在操场上慢跑几圈，无疑地可以减轻一天的压力。在周末时，我都去看早场电影，享受视觉飨宴。如此一来，我将有如再生般的充沛活力，去面对下一星期的工作量。 My first Job【我的第一份工作】 My first job was at a cramming It was three years ago when I just graduated from junior high school and finished the entrance since I had nothing to do that summer， I decided to find a job， tasting the joy of I was responsible for answering the telephone and taking the I worked eight hours a day， six days a The work was not difficult nor heavy to me and I guess I did The most delighted thing was perhaps that I could spend the money I earned all by 我的第一份工作是在一家补习班做事。那是三年前我刚从国中毕业，考完联考时的事了。既然我那整个夏天都闲着没事，倒不如找份差事，尝尝独立赚钱的快乐。 我负责接听电话且纪录留言的工作。我一天工作八小时，一星期工作六天。那份工作对我而言既不困难亦不沉重，所以我想我还满称职的。而最令人快乐的事大概莫过于花全部由自己赚来的钱了！ My Favorite Sports【我最喜爱的运动】 Sports help everyone to keep healthy， happy， and So I pay special attention to games， especially table- Table tennis is my favorite I play it almost every Table-tennis is an ideal game us because it brings the whole body into It strengthens our muscles， expands our lungs， promotes the circulation of the blood， and causes a healthy action of the Besides， it is very amusing and does not cost us much Table-tennis is very moderate; it is not so rough as It is an indoor game and can be played even on rainy Thus， it is my favorite kind of 运动能帮助每一个人保持健康、快乐和有效率。所以我特别重视运动，特别是桌球，桌球是我最喜欢的运动。我几乎每天玩。 桌球对我们而言，是一项理想的运动，因为它可以使我们全身运动，它可以增强我们的肌肉，扩张我们的肺部，促进血液循环，并且使肌肤产生健康作用，此外，它很有趣而且所费不多。桌球是相当温和适中的，它不像足球那么粗野。它是一种室内运动，甚至在下雨天也能玩。因此，桌球是我最喜爱的一种运动。
《老人与海》中桑提亚哥主体形象分析一、内在力量桑提亚哥是位以打鱼为生的古巴老渔夫，他历经风霜饱受艰难，岁月的流失在他身上留下了深刻的痕迹。他已连续84天没钓到一条鱼了，前几十天有一小孩陪着他出海，由于他的失败和背运，那个小孩被父母逼着跟另外的渔船钓鱼。如今老头孤独无援，厄运缠身。但他老而不衰，苍老的容貌与他充满活力的内心形成了鲜明的对比。海明威在描写桑提亚哥这一人物时，通过描述他的体貌和眼神，体现出了老人外表的苍老与内在的力量：The old man was thin and gaunt，with deep wrinkles in the back of his The brown blotches of the benevolent skin cancer the sun brings from its reflection on the tropic sea were on his The blotches ran well down the sides of his face and his hands had the deep – creased scars from handling heavy fish on the But none of the scars were They were as old as erosions in a fishless Everything about him was old except his eye and they were the same color as the sea and were cheerful and 除了老头那双充满活力的眼睛，海明威还通过小孩曼诺林的眼睛让读者看到桑提亚哥身体上其它有力的部分，从而使读者期待而不幻想，把注意力集中到桑提亚哥身上，他有力的肩膀，壮实的头颈无一不显示出他所蕴含的力量： They were strange shoulders，still powerful although very old，and the neck was still strong too and the creases did not show so much when the old man was asleep and his head fallen 也正是这种老而不衰的体力构成了桑提亚哥支撑自信的基本力量之一。作为一个经常处于与大自然力量相抗争状态的渔夫，他知已至深，十分清楚自身的优势和胜算；对于他要面对的大鱼，他亦知彼至深，懂得如何运用技巧和耐力赢得一场公平的战斗。他对自己的能力不抱幻想，也不狂妄地自我吹嘘。只是等待机会证实自己的能力，所以，他对曼诺林的称赞反应并不十分强烈，只是淡淡的一句 “Thank You make me I hope no fish will come along so great that he will prove us ” 显示出一个知已知彼的钓鱼高手在临战前的冷静和镇定，话说得虽少，却字字千钓，自有一股震人心魄的力量。 桑提亚哥的行动正如他的言语一样，简洁而精确，没有多余的动作。他的每个动作似乎经过精确计算，决不多浪费一点精力。如他脱衣睡觉的动作，轻捷而实用，读起来让人如身临其境： He rolled his trousers up to make a pillow，putting the newspaper inside He rolled himself in the blanket and slept on the other old newspapers that covered the springs of the 他简朴，贫困而不寒酸，谦卑而不低贱，动作之中自有一股尊严，令人敬仰。海明威在这一人物身上寄托了他对人性的深刻理解和信念。无论环境多么困苦艰难险恶，无论一个人的地位高低，保持人的尊严是最重要的。这种尊严不会由于财富的多寡，运气的大小而增减，它是真正美好的人性必不可少的一部分，Young指出这种认识境界也是海明威本人所能达到的高度，也是他这一作品最成功之处。 “The knowledge that a simple man is capable of the decency， dignity， and even heroism that Santiago possesses and that his battle can been seen in heroic terms is itself perhaps the greatest victory that Hemingway ” 二、硬汉本色如果说桑提亚哥在其行动中显示了尊严，在遭到失败后还继续保持不败的精神则显示了他的硬汉本色，他与小孩曼诺林的友谊则显示了他性格中温暖的一面。他的忠诚和激情通过他的行动表达出来，如他独自一人在海上的时候多次提到小孩曼诺林，使人感觉到他对友谊和帮助的渴求。 但桑提亚哥这一人物的性格并非不存在任何缺陷，如他允许自己和曼诺林不断重复那段关于子虚乌有的米饭和鱼网的对话，暴露了他性格中非理智的一面： “What do you have to eat?” the boy “A pot of yellow rice with Do you want some?” “N I will eat at Do you want me to make the fire?”“N I will make it later Or I may eat the rice ” “May I take the castnet?”“Of ”“硬汉子”桑提亚哥在与马林鱼和鲨鱼的冲突中把自己的体能发挥到了极限。但在小说的结尾处，我们听到桑提亚哥和Manolin在谈论下次出海打鱼的计划： “Now we fish together ” “N I am not I am not luck any ” “The hell with luck，” the boy said “ I’ll bring the luck with ” “We must get a good killing lance and always have it on You can make the blade from a spring leaf from an old We can grind it in G It should be sharp and not tempered so it will My knife ”桑提亚哥并没有被打败。此次捕鱼的失败只给他留下了疲劳和更多的经验或诀窍。同时，曼诺林的存在使他的失败又被赋予了一层新的意义。他发现他可以从自己失败的地方找到可以教导曼诺林的教训，现身说法，使这次失败在曼诺林身上产生更深远的价值，桑提亚哥的“硬汉”精神会在曼诺林身上得到延续和弘扬。正如Baker所言： “The winner takes nothing but the sense of having fought the fight to the limits of his strength，of having shown what a man can do when it is necessary like many of the rest of us，he is undefeated only because he has gone on ” 三、海明威主角模式卓绝的特质与阔远宁静的心理素质在桑提亚哥这一主体形象身上，不仅凝聚了海明威主角模式卓绝的特质，如压力下的冷静和优雅风度以及产生这种优雅感的自我控制力，还显示出了一种更加阔远宁静的心理素质。桑提亚哥对失败的反应已不再像其主角模式那样愤世嫉俗，他平静而坚定地接受了自己的命运，内心的信念并未因此而丧失。作为一个渔夫，连续数月捕不到鱼这种挫折对他来说既不是第一次，也不是最后一次。这一点从曼诺林口中说出，也说明了曼诺林对老人桑提亚哥的信心基础。在曼诺林的眼中，桑提亚哥是经受过考验的。对读者来说； The man who never encounters death，who never faces any danger at all， this man has not yet been tested; we don’t know whether he will withstand the pressures，whether he will prove to be a true Hemingway 对桑提亚哥来说，更富有意义的是他已不止一次经受住了考验，他无论在道德上还是在勇气上都属于胜利者。 “He fights with dignity，against great odds，and though he loses the marlin，he survives and wins and moral victory for himself by daring the sea and the great The fullest expression of his courage and his strength are tested-- and are ”另外，桑提亚哥作为胜者的意义不仅仅在于他在压力下所显示的巨大勇气和凛然的尊严，还在于他强大的意志力与其衰老的肉体强烈的反差对比，他体能上的弱势由于其娴熟的技巧得到部分弥补，但他作为一个个体在与生存环境的抗争中更富有深刻的寓意。桑提亚哥所显示的勇气和意志力于全人类无疑具有深刻的意义。四、结语作为文学作品中一个虚构的人物，桑提亚哥是“浑圆”的人物，他的内心和态度经历了变化，性格得到了进一步的发展。他意识到在向自己的极限的挑战中，他所能取得的成功由于其它对抗力量的制约而不能圆满，当他发现自己一直寻找或猎取的大鱼被毫无意义地吞食时，他意识到不仅伤害了对手，也伤害了自己。而在这以前，他还一直以为自己在一场公平的竞争中赢得了胜利，遭遇鲨鱼之后他才发现自己为这一胜利付出的代价多么惨痛。在他出海前，他满怀信心，认为凭借一已之力就可以捕到大鱼，但在与大鱼正面对抗时，他才意识到人与人之间的帮助是珍贵而必需的，这种帮助的意义还不仅仅在于体力上的帮忙，更重要的是给他以精神上的支撑。
