5、尽周折地保存数以万计的书籍、文献和记录。我们为什么要有图书馆呢?这些文献和史书有何用途呢?我们为什么要记载并保存人类的行为、政府官员的会谈和战争中的事件呢?我们这么做的原因在于有时候经历之音能促使我们停步、观察和倾听。也由于有时候过去的记载经过正确地诠释,能帮助我们决定何事可为、何事不可为。假如我们想要创造永久的和平,我们就必须从人类的经历以及人类历史的记载中去探索其渊源。从体现男性和女性英勇和奉献精神的故事之中,我们获得了青春的启示。历史记载着人类的一切苦难、克己、忠实和英勇的事迹。这些记载在我们困惑和渴望和平常能对我们有所帮助。历史的主要目的是创造一个愈加美妙的世界。历史对那些力主战争的人
6、给以警告,给予那些寻求和平的人以启示。简而言之,历史帮助我们学习。昨日的记载能够使我们避免重蹈覆辙。这些历史学家们创作的像马赛克一样色彩缤纷的历史片断会聚成了代表人类进步的伟大壁画。短篇经典英语美文篇2抬头是希望TheRiseIsHopeIfyouputabuzzardinapensixtoeightfeetsquareandentirelyopenatthetop,thebird,inspiteofitsabilitytofly,willbeanabsoluteprisoner.Thereasonisthatabuzzardalwaysbeginsaflightfromthegroundwi

17、台上,躺在凉快和露水弥漫的夜幕中,仿佛你用它作为外衣裹住了你的身子。阳台下面是栽着树木的人行道,像一条深不可测的黑色的海湾,飘忽的精灵就投入了这乌黑沉静的海湾,拥抱着某个所爱的精灵随波荡漾而去。长长的街道上,街灯仍然四处亮着。人们从灯下走过,托拽着各种各样奇形怪状的影子,影子时而缩短,时而伸长,最后消失在黑暗之中;同时,一个新的影子又忽然出如今那个行路人的身后,这影子好似风车上的翼板一样,转到他身体的前方去了。公园的铁门当啷一声关上,耳边能够听到脚步声和响亮的讲话声;一阵喧闹;一阵酒醉后的吵嚷声;一阵火灾的报警声;接着,寂静如初。于是,城市终于沉睡,我们终于能够看到夜的景色。姗姗来迟的月亮从屋顶后面探出脸来,觉察没有人在欢迎她.月光破碎,东一块,西一块,撒落在各个广场上和各条大街的开阔处-像一块块白色的大理石一样棱角分明.猜你喜欢:1.英语经典美文短文优选2.英文短篇唯美美文3.一生必读英文经典美文4.英语经典美文优选5.一生必读英语经典美文
