第二十一天：WAR 戰(zhàn)爭
Though the people in the world are all opposed to war, they can by no means avoid it. This is indeed a regrettable thing.
War is very terrible. Everybody hears it with fear. In a war thousands and thousands of lives will be lost and a large amount of money (will be) wasted. It brings us untold miseries and damage.
To sum up, so long as war is unavoidable, human beings cannot enjoy lasting peace. How tragical their fate is!
雖然世界的人民都反對戰(zhàn)爭，但是他們卻無法能夠避免它。這確實是件非常令人遺憾的事情。
戰(zhàn)爭是非?？膳碌?。每個人聽到它都害怕。在戰(zhàn)爭中，成千成萬的人喪失了生命，大量金錢浪費了。它帶給我們無窮盡的痛苦和損失。
總而言之，只要戰(zhàn)爭不可避免，人類不可能享受持久的和平。他們的命運是多么悲慘呀！

第二十三天：MONEY 錢
Everybody wishes (hopes) to get money so that he can maintain his livelihood. In other words, money is so useful that it is impossible for mankind to live without it. For this reason, we have an interesting proverb. It says “Money can make the world go around.” In a word, money is more powerful than anything else.
However, money should not be wasted. It must be used for (some) proper purposes. We young men should form the good habit of not spending money in the wrong way.
每個人為了能夠維持生活，所以都希望得到錢。換句話說，錢是非常有用，所以沒有它人類即無法生活?；诖朔N理由，我們有一句有趣的諺語。它說有“錢能使鬼推磨”。一言以蔽之，錢比任何另外的東西更有力量。

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
第二十五天：THE ZOO 動物園
The zoo is the most interesting place that I have ever seen in my whole life. It is like a garden which shows (exhibits) various kinds of animals, birds and insects.
It is indeed a good idea to pay a visit to the zoo during school holidays. The more you look at the animals, the happier you will become. Of (Among) all the animals, the monkey is (monkeys are) the funniest. That’s my opinion. Do you agree.
動物園是我一生中所知道的有趣的地方。它像一個各種類類動物，鳥類以及昆蟲展覽的花園。
在學校放假期間，參觀一下動物園，確實是一個好主意。你越喜歡看動物，你將越變得快樂。在所有動物中，猴子是滑稽的。那是我的意見。你同意么？

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

不需說，只有毅力才能引導人邁向成功之途。換句話說，一個具有毅力的人做工作終是(never...without)會把它做成功的。這真是不易之定理也。

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
第三十三天：MY MOTHER 我母親

When someone disagrees with you or offends you, don’t lose your temper. Why? Because it is of no use to do so. You ought to (should) be patient and keep calm lest you should quarrel with him. You must know that patience is not cowardice, but a virtue. I hope that everybody practices it.
In addition, patience will also bring us success. When you meet with difficulties in your work, it is no use losing heart. You must keep on fighting until (till) the final victory belongs to you.
當有人和你意見不同或開罪你的時候，你切不可發(fā)脾氣。為什么？因為這樣做是無用的（用of no use）。你應當忍耐并且保持冷靜，唯恐和他爭吵。你必須知道忍耐不是弱而是一種美德。我希望人人都實行它。
另外，忍耐也會帶給我們成功。當你在工作中遭遇到困難的時候，灰心是無用的。你必須繼續(xù)作戰(zhàn)直到后勝利屬于你為止。
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
第三十七天：SANITARY WAYS IN SUMMER 夏天的衛(wèi)生方法

We must try our best to get (obtain) them.
We should take at least one bath every day.

我們每天至少應當洗一個澡。
不要穿臟衣服。

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
第三十八天：WORK WHILE YOU WORK, PLAY WHILE YOU PLAY 工作時工作，游玩時游玩
Both work and play are necessary to us; the former gives us knowledge while the latter (gives) rest. An English proverb is well said: “Work while you work play while you play.” It makes our life pleasant, efficient and successful.
Work is one thing and play is another. It is of course not good to work all day long. However, it is also not good to play all day long. While you work, you should work in earnest. Then while you play, you will feel more relaxed and pleasant. That goes without saying.
工作和游玩兩者對我們都是必須的，前者給我們知識，后者給我們休息。英諺說得好“工作時工作，游玩時游玩”。它使我們的生活愉快，有效率以及成功。
工作是一回事，游玩又是另一回事。整日工作自然不好。然而，整天游玩也是不好。當你工作時，你應認真工作。那末當你游玩時，你會覺得比較輕松愉快。那是不需說的。
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
第三十九天：MY FAVORITE PASTIME 我心愛的消遣
It goes without saying that work without rest will do harm to health. In other words, we had better take sufficient recreation to relax after work.
There is no doubt that there are a number of amusements, such as playing ball games, collecting stamps, fishing, gardening, skating and so on.
As for (to) me, I take great delight in gardening. Whenever I am at leisure, I am accustomed to growing flowers. I regard them as my most agreeable companion.
不需說，工作而不休息會對健康有害的。換句話說，我們好工作后，從事分的消遣來輕松一下。
無疑的，消遣的種類很多，諸如打球，集郵，釣魚，園藝，溜冰等等。
就我而言，我大大喜歡園藝。每當我有閑暇的時候，我習慣于種花。我把它們看作是我稱心如意的伴侶。
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
第四十天：FACTORS OF SUCCESS 成功要素
I would rather suffer hardships than fail. In other words, to achieve success is my only desire. We all know that there are many factors of success. Now let me write down the most important ones in the following.
Diligence—Foolish as a person is, he can succeed in his work if he works hard. That does not admit of any doubt.
Perseverance—When you fail, don’t lose heart. Keep on working until you accomplish your aim.
Honesty—If you tell lies or does not keep your words, no one will rely on you. I would rather be scolded than cheat (others).
我寧愿受苦難不愿失敗。換句話說，獲致成功是我的愿望。我們大家知道成功要素很多?，F(xiàn)在讓我們把它們重要的寫在下面。
勤勉――一個人雖然不大聰明，但是他地能做成他的工作，如果他苦干的話。那是不容置疑的。
毅力――當你失敗的時候，不要灰心。要繼續(xù)工作，直到你達到目的為止。
誠實――如果你說謊或不守信，沒有人會信賴你。我寧愿挨罵不愿欺騙人。
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
第四十一天：MY AIM 我的志向
Whatever a man’s status is (may be), he must have an aim. If not, he can hardly stand on his own two feet in the world. That stands to reason.
However important fame and wealth may be, we must not let them become our object in life. We should aim at doing something useful to the society.
If my aim can come true, I hope (wish) to be a teacher. However, teaching is by no means an easy thing. I must apply myself closely to my studies so as to be able to cope with my duties (as a teacher).
不論人是什么身份，他必須有一個志向。如果沒有的話，他很難立足于世上。那是顯而易見的。
不論名利如何重要，我們切不可讓它們成為我們生活之目標。我們應當志在做一些對社會有益的事情。
如果我的志向能實現(xiàn)的話，我就希望成為一個老師。然而，教書并不是一容易的事情。我必須專心學業(yè)以便能應因我的職責。
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
第四十二天：OUR NATIONAL FATHER 我的國父
There is no doubt that Dr. Sun Yat-Sen is the greatest man that I ever known in my whole life. He set up the Republic of China, so we call him our National Father.
He was devoted to the revolution about forty years. His aim was to liberate China from the hands of the Manchu Dynasty. He had not met with result, but he was not discouraged at all. As a result, he accomplished his end in the long run.
To sum up, his strong will and indomitable spirit are worth our worship and imitation (are worth our worshiping and imitating).
無疑的，中山先生是我一生知道的大的人物。他建立中民國，所以我他為我的國父。
他致力革命凡四十年。他的目的是清朝手里解放中國。他曾遭遇屢次的失敗，但他卻一點也不灰心。那是不需說的。結果，他終于達到目的。
總而言之，他堅強的意志和不屈不撓的精神（是）值得我們的崇拜和仿效。

戰(zhàn)爭是非?？膳碌?。每個人聽到它都害怕。在戰(zhàn)爭中，成千成萬的人喪失了生命，大量金錢浪費了。它帶給我們無窮盡的痛苦和損失。
總而言之，只要戰(zhàn)爭不可避免，人類不可能享受持久的和平。他們的命運是多么悲慘呀！

My mother is a woman of the old school. She is too conservative to keep up with the times. However, she is good-natured and treats others incerely. For this reason, all her neighbors are only too glad (pleased) to make friends with her. They consider her a model woman.
She is a typical housewife. She keeps the (her) house neat and clean and looks after us with extreme care . She often says to us, “You cannot study too ard.”
我母親是中國老式女子。她太保守無法跟上時代。然而，她性情善良，待人誠懇。基于此種理由，所有她的鄰居都十分高興和她結交朋友。他們認為她是模范女子。
她是一位標準的家庭主婦。她把家保持整潔。她小心翼翼地照顧我們。她時常對我們說：“你們越用功越好”。
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
第三十四天：WHERE THERE IS A WILL, THERE IS A WAY 有志者事竟成
The secret of success (The key to success) is not so much money as a strong will. A great man is one who has a strong will and an indomitable spirit. In other words, if a man does not have a strong will to win (get) the final victory, he will never succeed in his life. He is no more than a failure.
It is quite obvious that there is no difficult thing (nothing difficult) in the world. if you make up your mind to do it, you will certainly accomplish your end. That stands to reason.
成功的要訣不是金錢而是一個堅強的意志（用not so mush... as）。一個大人物是一個具有堅強意志和不屈不撓精神的人。換句話說，如果一個人沒有堅強意志去獲得后勝利的人，他終其一生永遠不會成功。他只不過是（用no more than）一個失敗者。
很顯明的世界上并沒有難事。如果你下定決心去做它，你一定會達到目的。那是顯而易見的。

第三十六天：TO BE PATIENT 要忍耐
When someone disagrees with you or offends you, don’t lose your temper. Why? Because it is of no use to do so. You ought to (should) be patient and keep calm lest you should quarrel with him. You must know that patience is not cowardice, but a virtue. I hope that everybody practices it.
In addition, patience will also bring us success. When you meet with difficulties in your work, it is no use losing heart. You must keep on fighting until (till) the final victory belongs to you.
當有人和你意見不同或開罪你的時候，你切不可發(fā)脾氣。為什么？因為這樣做是無用的（用of no use）。你應當忍耐并且保持冷靜，唯恐和他爭吵。你必須知道忍耐不是弱而是一種美德。我希望人人都實行它。
另外，忍耐也會帶給我們成功。當你在工作中遭遇到困難的時候，灰心是無用的。你必須繼續(xù)作戰(zhàn)直到后勝利屬于你為止。
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
第三十七天：SANITARY WAYS IN SUMMER 夏天的衛(wèi)生方法
Not only is summer a hot season but also diseases are apt to happen. To us it is neither comfortable nor safe.
If we do not wish to get sick, we must pay attention to the following sanitary ways in summer.
Both fresh air and clean food are indispensable to us.
We must try our best to get (obtain) them.
We should take at least one bath every day.
Don’t wear dirty clothes.
In conclusion, if we can carry out the above – mentioned rules, we will neither get (take/fall) sick nor suffer pain.
夏天不僅是個炎熱的季節(jié)，而且疾病也容易發(fā)生。它對我們既不舒適也不安全。我們希望不生病，就得注意下面那些夏天衛(wèi)生的方法。
新鮮空氣和干凈的食物兩者對我們是不可缺少的。我們必須盡全力去獲得它們。
我們每天至少應當洗一個澡。
不要穿臟衣服。
總而言之，如果我們能實行上面所說的那些規(guī)則，我們既不會生病也不會吃苦。
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
第三十八天：WORK WHILE YOU WORK, PLAY WHILE YOU PLAY 工作時工作，游玩時游玩
Both work and play are necessary to us; the former gives us knowledge while the latter (gives) rest. An English proverb is well said: “Work while you work play while you play.” It makes our life pleasant, efficient and successful.
Work is one thing and play is another. It is of course not good to work all day long. However, it is also not good to play all day long. While you work, you should work in earnest. Then while you play, you will feel more relaxed and pleasant. That goes without saying.
工作和游玩兩者對我們都是必須的，前者給我們知識，后者給我們休息。英諺說得好“工作時工作，游玩時游玩”。它使我們的生活愉快，有效率以及成功。
工作是一回事，游玩又是另一回事。整日工作自然不好。然而，整天游玩也是不好。當你工作時，你應認真工作。那末當你游玩時，你會覺得比較輕松愉快。那是不需說的。
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
第三十九天：MY FAVORITE PASTIME 我心愛的消遣
It goes without saying that work without rest will do harm to health. In other words, we had better take sufficient recreation to relax after work.
There is no doubt that there are a number of amusements, such as playing ball games, collecting stamps, fishing, gardening, skating and so on.
As for (to) me, I take great delight in gardening. Whenever I am at leisure, I am accustomed to growing flowers. I regard them as my most agreeable companion.
不需說，工作而不休息會對健康有害的。換句話說，我們好工作后，從事分的消遣來輕松一下。
無疑的，消遣的種類很多，諸如打球，集郵，釣魚，園藝，溜冰等等。
就我而言，我大大喜歡園藝。每當我有閑暇的時候，我習慣于種花。我把它們看作是我稱心如意的伴侶。
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
第四十天：FACTORS OF SUCCESS 成功要素
I would rather suffer hardships than fail. In other words, to achieve success is my only desire. We all know that there are many factors of success. Now let me write down the most important ones in the following.
Diligence—Foolish as a person is, he can succeed in his work if he works hard. That does not admit of any doubt.
Perseverance—When you fail, don’t lose heart. Keep on working until you accomplish your aim.
Honesty—If you tell lies or does not keep your words, no one will rely on you. I would rather be scolded than cheat (others).
我寧愿受苦難不愿失敗。換句話說，獲致成功是我的愿望。我們大家知道成功要素很多?，F(xiàn)在讓我們把它們重要的寫在下面。
勤勉――一個人雖然不大聰明，但是他地能做成他的工作，如果他苦干的話。那是不容置疑的。
毅力――當你失敗的時候，不要灰心。要繼續(xù)工作，直到你達到目的為止。
誠實――如果你說謊或不守信，沒有人會信賴你。我寧愿挨罵不愿欺騙人。
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
第四十一天：MY AIM 我的志向
Whatever a man’s status is (may be), he must have an aim. If not, he can hardly stand on his own two feet in the world. That stands to reason.
However important fame and wealth may be, we must not let them become our object in life. We should aim at doing something useful to the society.
If my aim can come true, I hope (wish) to be a teacher. However, teaching is by no means an easy thing. I must apply myself closely to my studies so as to be able to cope with my duties (as a teacher).
不論人是什么身份，他必須有一個志向。如果沒有的話，他很難立足于世上。那是顯而易見的。
不論名利如何重要，我們切不可讓它們成為我們生活之目標。我們應當志在做一些對社會有益的事情。
如果我的志向能實現(xiàn)的話，我就希望成為一個老師。然而，教書并不是一容易的事情。我必須專心學業(yè)以便能應因我的職責。
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
第四十二天：OUR NATIONAL FATHER 我的國父
There is no doubt that Dr. Sun Yat-Sen is the greatest man that I ever known in my whole life. He set up the Republic of China, so we call him our National Father.
He was devoted to the revolution about forty years. His aim was to liberate China from the hands of the Manchu Dynasty. He had not met with result, but he was not discouraged at all. As a result, he accomplished his end in the long run.
To sum up, his strong will and indomitable spirit are worth our worship and imitation (are worth our worshiping and imitating).
無疑的，中山先生是我一生知道的大的人物。他建立中民國，所以我他為我的國父。
他致力革命凡四十年。他的目的是清朝手里解放中國。他曾遭遇屢次的失敗，但他卻一點也不灰心。那是不需說的。結果，他終于達到目的。
總而言之，他堅強的意志和不屈不撓的精神（是）值得我們的崇拜和仿效。
