每日一学(4月15日）PERFECT MATCH.A wealthy matron is so proud of a valuable antique vase that she decides to have her bedroom painted the same color as the vase. Several painters try to match the shade, but none comes close enough to satisfy the eccentric woman.
　　Eventually, a painter approaches who is confident he can mix the proper color. The woman is pleased with the result, and the painter becomes famous.
　　Years later, he retires and truns the business over to his son. "Dad," says the son, "theres something Ive got to know. How did you get those walls to match the vase so perfectly?"
　　"Son," the father replies, "I painted the vase."

　　“儿子，”父亲回答说，“我漆了花瓶。”

Mr. and Mrs. Jones very seldom go out in the evening, but last saturday, Mrs. Jones said to her husband, "There is a good film at the cinema tonight. Can we go and see it?"
Mr. Jones was quite happy about it, so they went, and both of them enjoyed the film.
They came out of the cinema at 11 o'clock, got into their car and began driving home. It was quite dark. Then Mrs. Jones said, "Look, Bill. A woman's running along the road very fast, and a man's running after her. Can you see them?"
Mr. Jones said, "Yes, I can." He drove the car slowly near the woman and said to her, "Can we help you?"
"No, thank you," the woman said, but she did not stop running. "My husband and I always run home after the cinema, and the last one washes the dishes at home!"

　　琼斯夫妇晚上很少出门，但上星期六，琼斯太太对丈夫说：“电**今晚有场好电影，我们去看好吗？”
　　琼斯先生很乐意，于是他们就去了。两个人都喜欢那部电影。
　　晚上十一点，他们从电**出来，钻进汽车，开始驾车回家。天很黑。这时，琼斯太太说：“看，比尔。一个女人在沿街狂奔，一个男人在后猛追不舍。你看到了吗？”
　　琼斯先生说：“是的，看到了。”他慢慢把车开近那女人，说道：“你需要帮忙吗？”
　　“不，谢谢，”女人答道，但她没有放慢速度，“我丈夫跟我在看完电影后，经常跑步回家，后到家的洗碗涮碟。”

每日一学(4月9日）THE SHEPHERDESS

the shepherdess

alice meynell

she walks——the lady of my delight——

a shepherdess of sheep.

her flocks are thoughts.she keep them white;

she guards them from the steep.

she feeds them on the fragrant height

and folds them in for sleep.

http://images15.51.com/j/200612/d0/76/xiaojixi/6c8cf1756cf0062f84800c447886c752.gif

she roams maternal hills and bright,

dark valleys safe and deep.

into that tender breast at night

the chastest stars may peep.

she walks——the lady of my delight——

a shepherdess of sheep.

http://www.discuz.net/attachments/month_0508/20043146503792692_eXwDq3Fzf3Z0.gif

she holds her little thoughts in sight,

though gay they run and leap.

she is so circumspect and right;

she has her soul to keep.

she walks——the lady of my delight——

a shepherdess of sheep.

牧羊的女儿

阿里斯·美那尔

她是在徜徉——我愉快的姑娘——

牧羊的女儿在牧羊。

她的羊群是思想，她使它们明亮；

她不让它们走近悬崖，

她饲养着它们在芬芳的丘陵上，

使它们安息在羊栏房。

http://bbs.ci123.com/upload/gposts/200705/666761fc8da0d1cb6c424de1828e9ff9.gif

慈祥的小丘映着阳光，

平安的幽谷，她在徜徉

夜里有那些最洁净的星星，

窥进那柔软的胸膛。

她在徜徉——我愉快的姑娘——

牧羊的女儿在牧羊。

http://www.nanture.com/image/pic/3/hbian%20(128).gif

她照管着她那些小思想，

尽管它们跳跃的好癫狂。

她是那样地小心而又端庄；

看守着自己的灵魂不放。

她在徜徉——我愉快的姑娘——

牧羊的女儿在牧羊

每日一学(4月8日）WHEN YOU CARE FOR SOMEBODY.You can't make someone love you, all you can do is to be someone who can be loved, the rest is up to the person to realize your worth.
你无法让人来爱你，你所能做的就是成为一个可以被爱的人，剩下的只能看对方能否意识到你的价值。

The measure of love is when you love without measure.
爱的衡量标准就是在当你无标准地奉献爱的时候。


In life there are very rare chances that you'll meet the person you love and loves you in return. So once you have it don't ever let go, the chance might never come your way again.
人生的旅途中，碰到你爱的人也爱你的机会寥寥无几，所以，如果你碰到了，就牢牢抓住它，机会错过了也许就不再来了。


It's better to lose your pride to the one you love, than to lose the one you love because of pride.
为你的爱丢掉傲慢总好过为了傲慢而丢掉你的爱。

We spend too much time looking for the right person to love or finding fault with those we already love, when instead we should be perfecting the love we give.
我们花费太多的时间去寻找真命天子，或在我们的爱人身上寻找缺陷，却忘了原本应该完善我们所付出的爱。


When you truly care for someone, you don't look for faults, you don't look for answers, you don't look for mistakes. Instead, you forgive the mistakes, you accept the faults, and you overlook the excuses.
当你真心在乎某个人，你不会在意他/她的缺点、他/她的借口，或是他/她所犯下的错。相反，你会原谅他/她的错误，接受他/她的缺点，忽略他/她的借口。

There are moments in life when you miss someone so much that you just want to pick them from your dreams and hug them for real!
生命中总有某些时刻你在想着一个人，想着想着，你就想把他/她拉出你的梦境，拥抱他/她。

Don't go for looks; they can deceive. Don't go for wealth; even that fades away. Go for someone who makes you smile because it takes only a smile to make a dark day seem bright. Find the one that makes your heart smile.
别看外表，外表可以欺人；别看身家，身家可以消耗殆尽；看谁可以使你微笑，因为微笑是晦日中的光芒。找到让你的心微笑的那个人吧！

但人生又重新开始

有人问我，

我是怎么活到现在的，

我说我也不晓得。

我想他们应该明白，

人生是多么孤寂，

但人生又重新开始，

从你牵着我的手那一天起，

http://images13.51.com/11/a/1c/ea/guobingchengzi/7f099f22474b7833b101c72f4a207825.gif

没错，我明白人生如此孤寂，

阴影紧跟着我，

连黑夜也不放过我，

但我不会因为暮色而意志消沉，

因为此刻你在我身旁。

每日一学(4月2日）THE PRACTICAL JOKE ON THE FOOL'S DAY.

http://www.chinadaily.com.cn/language_tips/news/attachement/jpg/site1/20080401/0013729e42d2095c159a0a.jpg

Are you fooled?

Office pranks are good for morale and could even help reduce stress, a new report has claimed.

Playing a practical joke on a colleague could encourage creativity and improve team-working, according to jobsite TheLadders.co.uk.

That's good news for office jokers everywhere on this April Fool's Day.

Some of the most popular pranks include unplugging a keyboard and moving the contents of a desk to another part of the office, the report said.

Wrongly telling a colleague it's 'Hawaiian shirt day' was another favourite which could cause hilarity in the workplace.

"April Fool's Day is the most light-hearted day of the year," said Sarah Drew, general manager of TheLadders.co.uk.

"It's a day when anything goes and strict protocol takes a back seat.

"When people come together to create a prank, it encourages creativity, teamwork and gives the office a shared experience outside of the workload."

But a Canadian survey done ahead of April Fool's Day also showed that pranks taken too far can damage careers, even though almost half of Canadians believe jokes are accepted in the workplace and that humor is a good way to relieve the pressure and stress of their jobs.

If a prank ends up costing the company in terms of money, injuries or a staff member's dismissal then it has gone too far.

一项最新报告称，办公室恶作剧能够提高工作积极性，甚至有助于减轻工作压力。

TheLadders.co.uk在线求职网站的调查表明，搞办公室恶作剧能够激发创造力，增强团队合作。

在“愚人节”，这一天 ，这个结果对于爱捉弄同事的“整人能手”们来说无疑是个好消息。

据报告称，最常见的办公室“整人”手段包括拔键盘和藏东西等。

“通知”同事今天是“便服日”也是一大惯用伎俩，这个消息倒是会引来办公室里的一片欢呼。

TheLadders.co.uk网站总经理莎拉•德鲁说：“愚人节是一年中最轻松的日子。”

“在这一天，大家可以随心所欲，忘记那些框框条条。”

“员工共同策划恶作剧能够激发创造力、增强团队合作，而且还能共同分享除工作外的一次经历。”

但加拿大在今年愚人节之前开展的一项调查显示，恶作剧玩得太过头会毁掉工作。不过近一半的加拿大人认为办公室恶作剧可以接受，而且幽默有助于缓解工作压力。

如果恶作剧给公司造成了经济损失、导致人员受伤或同事被解雇，那就太离谱了。

Vocabulary:

practical joke:恶作剧

Hawaiian shirt day: slang term for a business casual day（便服日；例如：Hey, don't forget, we don't have to wear ties tomorrow. It's Hawaiian shirt day.）

anything goes:万事皆可

sleeping Pills

Bob was having trouble getting to sleep at night. He went to see his doctor, who prescribed some extra-strong sleeping pills.

Sunday night Bob took the pills, slept well and was awake before he heard the alarm. He took his time getting to the office, strolled in and said to his boss: "I didn't have a bit of trouble getting up this morning."

"That's fine," roared the boss, "but where were you Monday and Tuesday?"

Found only on the islands of Oahu, Molokai, Maui, and Hawaii, the happy face spider, such as this one guarding its eggs on a leaf in Maui, is known for the unique patterns that decorate its pale abdomen. Scientists believe Theridion grallatormay have developed its distinctive markings to discourage birds from eating it.
