美篇导读
不要羡慕别人的成就,别人的成就都是通过每一天的努力取得的,想要成功就得付出辛劳。失败了,不要抱怨,事情终会有好转。我们会经历磨难,但是挺过去便守得云开见月明。
美篇呈现
Things work out
Because it rains when we wish it wouldn't,
Because men do what they often shouldn't,
Because crops fail,and plans go wrong—
Some of us grumble① all day long.
But sometimes,in spite of the care and doubt,
It seems at last that things work out.
Because we lose where we hoped to gain,
Because we suffer a little pain,
Because we must work when we'd like to play—
Some of us whimper② along life's way.
But somehow,as the day always follow the night,
Most of our troubles work out all right.
Because we cannot forever smile,
Because we must trudge③ in the dust awhile,
Some of us whimper that life's all wrong.
But somehow,we live and our sky grows bright,
And everything seems to work out all right.
So bend to your trouble and meet your care,
For the clouds must break,and the sky grows fair.
Let the rain come down,as it must and will.
But keep on working and hoping still.
For in spite of the grumblers who stand about,
Somehow,it seems,all things work out.
Heights
By Longfellow
The heights by great men reached and kept,
Were not attained by sudden flight;
But they,while their companions slept,
Were toiling④upward in the night.
守得云开见月明
只因阴晴未必如我们所愿,
只因人们未必都积德行善,
只因作物歉收,计划流产——
我们中的一些人就终日抱怨。
但即使有时经历忧虑与质疑,
事情似乎终会好转。
只因我们求胜之心落空,
只因我们受到少许痛楚,
只因我们必须工作而未能玩乐——
我们中的一些人就一生嗟叹。
但黑夜之后必是黎明,
我们的困难大多能圆满解决。
只因我们无法永远微笑,
只因我们要在泥尘中跋涉,
我们中的一些人就哀诉生活多磨难。
但我们挺过来了,守得云开见月明,
一切似乎得以顺利解决。
所以迎难而上,直面忧虑,
因为乌云终将散去,天空必定晴朗。
让雨洒下,它必须如此,不可逆转。
但请继续努力并始终希冀。
尽管到处都有发牢骚的人,
但无论如何,一切事情总会好转。

Because we must trudge③ in the dust awhile，
Some of us whimper that life's all wrong.
But somehow，we live and our sky grows bright，
And everything seems to work out all right.
So bend to your trouble and meet your care，
For the clouds must break，and the sky grows fair.
Let the rain come down，as it must and will.
But keep on working and hoping still.
For in spite of the grumblers who stand about，
Somehow，it seems，all things work out.
Heights
By Longfellow
The heights by great men reached and kept，
Were not attained by sudden flight；
But they，while their companions slept，
Were toiling④upward in the night.
守得云开见月明
只因阴晴未必如我们所愿，
只因人们未必都积德行善，
只因作物歉收，计划流产——
我们中的一些人就终日抱怨。
但即使有时经历忧虑与质疑，
事情似乎终会好转。
只因我们求胜之心落空，
只因我们受到少许痛楚，
只因我们必须工作而未能玩乐——
我们中的一些人就一生嗟叹。
但黑夜之后必是黎明，
我们的困难大多能圆满解决。
只因我们无法永远微笑，
只因我们要在泥尘中跋涉，
我们中的一些人就哀诉生活多磨难。
但我们挺过来了，守得云开见月明，
一切似乎得以顺利解决。
所以迎难而上，直面忧虑，
因为乌云终将散去，天空必定晴朗。
让雨洒下，它必须如此，不可逆转。
但请继续努力并始终希冀。
尽管到处都有发牢骚的人，
但无论如何，一切事情总会好转。

辛勤攀登仍不辍。
