1、 2023高中英语阅读理解材料 Relish the Moment 品尝现在 Tucked away in our subconsciousness is an idyllic vision. We see ourselves on a long trip that spans the moment. We are traveling by train. Out the windows, we drink in the passing scene of cars on nearby highways, of children waving at a crossing, of cattle gr

But uppermost in our minds is the final destination. On a certain day at a certain hour, we will pull

How restlessly we pace the aisles, damning the minutes for loitering-waiting, waiting, waiting for the st
4、ation. “When we reach the station, that will be it!” we cry. “When Im 18.” “When I buy a new 450SL Mercedes Benz!” “When I put the last kid through college.” “When I have paid off the mortgage!” “When I get a promotion.” “When I reach the age of retirement, I shall live happily ever after!” Sooner o
5、r later, we must realize there is no station, no one place to arrive at once and for all. The true joy of life is the trip. The station is only a dream. It constantly outdistances us. It isnt the burdens of today that drive men mad. It is the regrets over yesterday and the fear of tomorrow. Regret a

Instead, climb more mountains, eat more ice cream, go barefoot more often, swim more rivers, watch more sunsets, laugh more, cry less. Life must be lived as we go along.

7、 译文: 品尝现在 我们的潜意识里藏着一派田园诗般的风光! 我们仿佛身处一次横贯大陆的漫漫旅程之中! 乘着火车, 我们领会着窗外流淌的风光:四周高速大路上奔驰的汽车、十字路口处招手的孩童、远山上吃草的牛群、源源不断地从电厂排放出的烟尘、一片片的玉米和小麦、平原与山谷、群山与绵延的丘陵、天空衬托下城市的轮廓, 以及乡间的庄园宅第! 然而我们心里想得最多的却是最终的目的地! 在某一天的某一时刻, 我们将会抵达进站! 迎接我们的将是乐队和飘舞的彩旗! 一旦到了那儿, 多少美梦将成为现实, 我们的生活也将变得完整, 犹如一块理好了的拼图! 可是我们现在在过道里不耐烦地踱来踱去, 咒骂火车的拖拖拉拉!
8、我们期盼着, 期盼着, 期盼着火车进站的那一刻! 当我们到站的时候, 一切就都好了! 我们呼喊着! 当我18岁的时候! 当我有了一辆新450SL奔驰的时候! 当我供最小的孩子念完大学的时候! 当我偿清贷款的时候! 当我官上升任的时候! 当我到了退休的时候, 就可以从今过上幸福的生活啦! 可是我们终究会熟悉到人生的旅途中并没有车站, 也没有能够一到永逸的地方!生活的真正乐趣在于旅行的过程, 而车站不过是个梦, 它始终遥遥于我们! 真正令人发疯的不是今日的负担, 而是对昨日的懊悔及对明日的恐惊! 懊悔与恐惊是一对孪生窃贼, 将今日从你我身边偷走! 那么就不要在过道里徘徊吧, 别老惦记着你离车站还有
9、多远! 何不换一种活法, 将更多的高山攀爬, 多吃点儿冰淇淋甜甜嘴巴, 常常光着脚板儿溜达, 在更多的河流里畅游, 多看看夕阳西下, 多点欢乐哈哈, 少让泪水滴答! 生活得一边过一边瞧! 车站就会很快到达! 英语阅读理解带翻译:赐予 Like most people, I was brought up to look upon life as a process of getting.

You dont know what a letter like that means to us. We usually get nothi
