[6-20]双语美文欣赏:贫富的真意

[color=#000][font=宋体, arial]





   One day a rich father took his young son on a trip to the country with the firm purpose to show him how poor people can be. They spent a day and night in the farm of a very poor family. When they got back from their trip the father asked his son, "how was the trip?"[/font][/color]
[color=#000][font=宋体, arial]一天,一位富有的父亲带着他的小儿子去乡下旅行,打算让他见识一下穷人的生活。他们在一户非常贫穷人家的农场里住了一天一夜。旅行回来之后,父亲问儿子:“你觉得这次旅行怎样?”[/font][/color]



[p=23, 2, left]"Very good, Dad!"
“棒极了,爸爸!”[/p]
[p=23, 2, left]"Did you see how poor people can be?" the father asked.
"你看到穷人的生活了吗?”父亲问道。[/p]
[p=23, 2, left]"Yeah!" "And what did you learn?"[/p][p=30, 2, left]
“是的!”“那你从中学到了什么呢?”[/p]
[p=23, 2, left]The son answered, "I saw that we have a dog at home, and they have four. We have a pool that reaches to the middle of the garden; they have a creek that has no end. We have imported lamps in the garden; they have the stars. Our patio reaches to the front yard; they have a whole horizon."[/p][p=30, 2, left]
儿子回答道:“我看到我们家只有一只狗,而他们家有四只。我们的游泳池一直延伸到花园中间,而他们的小溪没有尽头。我们在花园里装了进口灯具,而他们有满天星斗。我们的天井接着前院,而他们拥有整个地平线。”[/p]
[p=23, 2, left]When the little boy was finishing, his father was speechless.[/p][p=30, 2, left]
当小男孩说完的时候,他的父亲目瞪口呆。[/p]
[p=23, 2, left]His son added, "Thanks, dad, for showing me how poor we are!"
他的儿子接着又补充道:“谢谢爸爸让我看到我们是多么贫穷!”[/p]
[p=23, 2, left]Isn't it true that it all depends on the way you look at things? If you have love, friends, family, health, good humor and a positive attitude toward life, you've got everything![/p][p=30, 2, left]
贫富的真意完全取决于你看待事物的角度,难道不是吗?如果你拥有爱人、朋友、家庭、健康、幽默感和对生活的积极态度,你就拥有了一切![/p][p=30, 2, left]
