介绍:
The Love of Beauty(爱美) Hello, everybody! Welcome to Campus Radio Service.This is Rain.大家好,欢迎收听新联学院英语广播电台,我是主播Rain. 今天我要为大家带来一篇英语美*****************************************************************************************美乃是健全人性不可或缺的一部分。It is a moral quality.它是道德的一种品质。The absence of it is not an assured ground of condemnation,缺乏这种品质并不能作为责难的真正理由,but the presence of it is an invariable sign of goodness of heart.但是拥有这种品质则是心灵美好的永恒标志。In proportion to the degree in which it is felt will probably be the degree in which nobleness and beauty of character will be attained.品德之高尚与完美所达到的程度可能与爱美的感受程度成正比。Natural beauty is an all pervading presence.大自然之美无处不在。The universe is its temple.整个宇宙就是其殿堂。It unfolds into the numberless flowers of spring.美,在春日百花中绽放;It waves in the branches of trees and the green blades of grass.美,在绿叶嫩枝间摇曳; It haunts the depths of the earth and the sea.美,在深海幽谷里游弋;It gleams from the hues of the shell and the precious stone.美,在奇石与贝壳的缤纷色彩中闪烁。And not only these minute objects but the oceans, the mountains, the clouds, the stars, the rising and the setting sun-all overflow with beauty.不只是这些细微之物,甚至大洋大川,云朵繁星,日出日落——切都洋溢着美。This beauty is so precious, and so congenial to our tenderest and noblest feelings,这样的美如此珍贵,与我们最温柔、最高尚的情感是如此相宜。that it is painful to think of the multitude of people living in the midst of it and yet remaining almost blind to it.然而,想到很多人置身于美,却几乎对它视若无睹,真是令人痛心不已。All persons should seek to become acquainted with the beauty in nature.所有的人都应该去感知大自然之美。There is not a worm we tread upon, nor a leaf that dances merrily as it falls before the autumn winds, but calls for our study and admiration.我们所踩过的小虫以及秋风拂掠之际飘落飞舞的树叶,皆值得我们探究与赞赏。The power to appreciate beauty not merely increases our sources of happiness—it enlarges our moral nature, too.具有欣赏美的能力不仅可以使我们快乐的源泉汩汩喷涌——它也可以拓展我们的德性。 Beauty calms our restlessness and dispels our cares.美,抚平我们心中的不安,也驱散了我们的忧虑。Go into the fields or the woods,走进田野或树林,spend a summer day by the sea or the mountains,在夏日的海滨或山间度过一天的时光,and all your little perplexities and anxieties will vanish.那么你所有微不足道的困惑和焦虑都会烟消云散。Listen to sweet music,倾听美妙的音乐, and your foolish fears and petty jealousies will pass away.你那愚蠢的恐惧与琐碎的猜忌都会消逝无踪。The beauty of the world helps us to seek and find the beauty of goodness.世间万物之美总会有助于我们探寻与发现善良之美。在这个忙碌的快速发展的时代,也许很少有人再去静下心来去发掘大自然美好的地方了,但我们也依然需要放下匆忙的脚步,去感受大自然的美好与和谐。因为岁月极美,在于它必然的流逝,春花,秋月,夏日,冬雪,都值得我们用心品味。今天的播音到此就要结束了,我们下期再见。See you!
