A friend of mine was fond of drawing horses.我的一个朋友喜欢画马。
He drew the horses very well,but he always began at the tail.他画马画的很好,但他总是开始的尾巴。
Now it is the western rule to begin at the head of the horse,that is why I was surprised.现在,是西方统治开始在头的马,这让我很惊讶。
It struck me that it could not really make any difference whether the artist begins at the head or the tail or the belly or the foot of the horse, if he really knows his business.我突然想起它都没有太大的区别的艺术家开始是否从头还是从尾,从腹部还是从脚马,如果他真的知道他的生意。
And most great artists who really know their business do not follow other people’s rule.最伟大的艺术家是真正了解他们的业务不跟随别人的习惯。
They make their own rules.他们有他们自己的规则。
Every one of them does his work in a way peculiar to himself, and the peculiarity means only that he finds it more easy to work in that way.他们每个人都是他自己独特的工作方法,并且这种独特的意思是他发现它更容易的工作。
Now the very same thing is ture to literature.现在非常相同的事情是真正的文学。
And the question”How shall I begin?”和这样的问题,“我应当怎样开始?”
only means that you want to begin at the head instead of beginning at the tail or some where else.只是意味着你想开始在头而不是从尾或一些别的地方。
That is ,you are not yet experienced enough to trust to your own powers.那是,你还没有足够的经验使你相信自己的能力。
When you become more experienced you will never ask the question,and I think that you will often begin at the tail.当你成为更有经验的你永远不会问这个问题,我认为你会经常出现在它的尾巴。
That is to say,you will write the end of the story before you have even thought of the beginning.也就是说,你要写故事的结局,在你以前甚至想开始。
呼~ 好累哦~

英语美文 信念的力量
信心之所以有着不可思议的强大力量,因为它们对我们的生命就像方向舵对轮船一样,控制着我们的方向和命运。我们并不总是像自己表白的那样去生活,而是一直都生活在我们的信念里。简单地说,如果我相信我是一个失败者,我就注定会是一个失败者。如果我相信我会成功,我就会成功。
Born in 1758, Horatio nelson, the son of a pastor, was a small, frail1 child who loved sailing. As a young teenager he joined the British Navy and, while journeying to the East Indies, caught a fever that seriously damaged his health. But he never allowed this to hold him back. At age 18, he was appointed a lieutenant2 in the Royal Navy and by the year 1802 was made commander-in-chief.
Two years later, at the battle of Trafalgar, Nelson defeated the combined3 French and Spanish fleets4. This was the greatest naval victory in British history and left British in control of the seas for the rest of the 1800's. Unfortunately, Nelson was mortally injured but lived long enough to know that his fleet had won the battle. His last words were, "Thank God I have done my duty."
Nelson was a man of fearless courage and devotion. He believed in his country, in his cause, and in himself. He once said, "I am of the opinion5 that the boldest measures are the safest." Nelson was a man greatly admired by others who said about him, "His frail body housed6 a great spirit."
One person with a belief is equal to a force of 99 who only have interest.
Beliefs are remarkably powerful in that they are to our lives what a rudder7 is to a ship. That is, they control the direction and destiny of our lives. While we don't always live the life we profess8, we always live the life we believe. Simply put, if I believe I am a failure, I will set myself up to fail. If I believe I am a successful person, I will succeed, and so on.
One very successful woman, a well-known entertainer, didn't have much going for her. She would never win a beauty contest and at age 38 was living on welfare. After reading Claude Briston's The Magic of Believing and beginning to believe in herself, her life took a dramatic turn. One gift she had was the ability to make people laugh. Once she believed this, she didn't allow what she didn't have to stop her using what she did have.
Jimmie Durante was another entertainer who wouldn't have made a fortune with his looks. But he capitalized on9 his weakness and turned it into one of his great strengths -- what he did have -- and put these to good use because he believed he could.

At first, I would pity for them, but in the long run, I find their work is so easy, they just sit in the office from 9 am to 5 pm, they even don’t need to go out for business. While I see another friend, he works so hard, his working hour is very unstable, sometimes he even works until 9 pm. The fact is that he earns the most between my friends. It is true that no pain, no gain, if people want more, they need to pay out more. Comparing to be envy about other people’s great income, we’d better to work hard to realize what we want. There is not short-cut for people to get successful, working hard is the only way.

But what is the standard of a beauty, different times have different standard.

In today, the standard of beauty has changed, the most important standard of a beauty is to be thin, the thinner, the better.
