经典美文，献给每一位逐梦者！

经典双语美文分享如何定义“青春”作家塞缪尔·厄尔曼写笔下的散文《Youth》全文 400 字，句句经典优美又富含哲理壹Youth is not a time of life; it is a state of mind; it is not a matter of rosy cheeks, red lips and

supple knees; it is a matter of the will, a quality of the imagination, avigor of the emotions; it is the freshness of the deep springs of life.

青春不是年华，而是心境；青春不是桃面、丹唇、柔膝，而是深沉的意志，恢宏的想象，炙热的恋情；青春是生命的深泉在涌流词汇积累：supple： adj.（身体）柔软的; 灵活的; 易弯曲的; 顺从的，巴结的。

eg: She is singing a supple tune.她正唱着一个轻快的曲调.vigor：n.效力; 智力; （语言等的）气势; （动，植物的）强健eg: They are full of vigor.

他们精神饱满.贰Youth means a temperamental predominance of courage over timidity, of the appetitefor adventure over the love of ease. This often exists in a man of 60 more than a boy of 20. Nobody grows old merely by a number of years. We grow old by deserting our ideals.

青春气贯长虹，勇锐盖过怯弱，进取压倒苟安如此锐气，二十后生而有之，六旬男子则更多见年岁有加，并非垂老，理想丢弃，方堕暮年词汇积累：predominance：n.优势; 主导或支配的地位; 运星主宰eg:

One of the characteristics of the Chinese language is the predominance of the verb.汉语的特点之一是常用动词.timidity：

n. 胆怯，羞怯eg:He had a terrible time in overcoming his timidity.他费了很大的劲才克服了他的胆怯.appetite：n.胃口; 食欲; 强烈欲望eg:

He has a jaded appetite.他的食欲不振.叁Years may wrinkle the skin, but to give up enthusiasm wrinkles the soul. Worry, fear,

self-distrust bows the heart and turns the spirit back to dust. 岁月悠悠，衰微只及肌肤；热忱抛却，颓废必致灵魂忧烦，惶恐，丧失自信，定使心灵扭曲，意气如灰。

词汇积累：self-distrust：n.没有信心，畏缩eg:Self - distrust is the cause of our most failure.缺乏自信是大部分失败的原因.肆Whether 60 or 16, there is in every human being’s heart the

lure of wonders, theunfailing appetite for what’s next and the joy of the game of living.无论年届花甲，拟或二八芳龄，心中皆有生命之欢乐，奇迹之诱惑，孩童般天真久盛不衰。

词汇积累：lure：n.吸引力，魅力; 诱惑物; 诱饵vt.吸引，引诱; 用引诱物召回（猎鹰）eg: Cheese is really a good lure for mice.奶酪是很好的引诱老鼠的诱饵.

伍In the center of your heart and my heart, there is a wireless station; so long as it receives messages of beauty, hope, courage and power from man and from the

infinite, so long as you are young. 人人心中皆有一台天线，只要你从天上人间接受美好、希望、欢乐、勇气和力量的信号，你就青春永驻，风华常存词汇积累：infinite：。

adj.无限的，无穷的; 无数的，许许多多的; 极大的n.无限，无穷; [数] 无穷大; 造物主，神; 无限的事物eg:The universe seems infinite.宇宙似乎是无限的.陆

When your aerials are down, and your spirit is covered with snows of cynicism and the ice of pessimism, then you’ve grown old, even at 20; but as long as your aerials are up, to catch waves of optimism, there’s hope you may die young at 80.

一旦天线下降，锐气便被冰雪覆盖，玩世不恭、自暴自弃油然而生，即使年方二十，实已垂垂老矣；然则只要树起天线，捕捉乐观信号，你就有望在八十高龄告别尘寰时仍觉年轻词汇积累：aerials：n.天线( aerial 的名词复数 )。

eg:The coded signal is received by satellite dish aerials.编码信号由碟形卫星天线接收cynicism：n.讥笑，讥讽的言词; 愤世嫉俗; 玩世不恭; 犬儒哲学，犬儒主义。

eg:He was dismayed at the cynicism of the youngsters.他对年轻人的玩世不恭感到惊愕。
