第5章 Rhythm of Love(5)

At that moment there was much peace in Heaven,but voices from earth could already be heard. The child knew he had to start on his journey very soon. He asked God one more question,softly,“Oh God,if I am about to leave now,please tell me my angels name.”

God touched the child on the shoulder and answered,“Your angels name is not hard to remember. You will simply call her Mommy.”

你的守护天使

从前,有个孩子马上就要诞生了。因此有一天他问上帝:“听说明天你就送我去人间了,但是,我这么弱小和无助,我在那儿怎么生活呢?”

上帝答道:“在众多的天使中,我特别为你挑了一位。她会守候你、无微不至地照顾你。”

小孩还是拿不准自己是否真的想去。“但是在天堂,我除了唱唱笑笑外,什么也不做。这就足以让我感到幸福了。”

“你的天使每天会为你唱歌,为你微笑。你会感受她的爱,并且因此而幸福。”

“如果我不懂人类的语言,他们对我说话时,我怎么听得懂呢?”孩子继续问道。

上帝轻轻地拍了一下孩子的脑袋说:“你的天使会对你说最最美丽、最最动听的话语,而这些都是你从未听过的。她会不厌其烦地教你说话。”

“如果我想与你说话怎么办?”

上帝胸有成竹地回答:“你的天使会将你的双手合拢,教你如何祈祷。”

“听说尘世有很多坏蛋,谁来保护我呢?”

“即使冒着生命危险,你的天使也会保护你的。”

“但是见不到你,我会难过的。”小孩小心翼翼说道。

听到这儿,上帝对着小孩笑了。“尽管我会一直陪伴你左右,你的天使仍会提起我,教你重返天堂之路。”

此时,天堂一片宁静,凡间的声音已可听到,小孩明白自己得赶紧上路了。 他又轻声问了最后一个问题,“哦,上帝,假如我现在就出发,请你告诉我,我的天使叫什么名字。”

上帝把手放在小孩的肩上,答道:“你的天使的名字很容易记住,你就叫她——妈妈。”

Beauty Is in the Eye of the Beholder

For years men and women have been getting married. They say their wedding vows which bring them together as one. They promise to love and cherish each other until death do them part.

When a man and a woman get married,it is one of the biggest decisions they will make in life. A man may select a woman because he,in his own eyes,sees her as the justright wife for him. Every man has his own definition of what the “justright” wife is. For instance,the millionairemillionaire n.百万富翁,大富豪 man and the poor man both may define their justright wife according to her physical qualities.

A millionaire may describe his “justright” wife as charming,beautiful,sexy,intelligent,and well developed. On the other hand,a poor man may define his “justright” wife as pleasing,attractive,desirabledesirable adj.值得要的,合意的,令人想要的,悦人心意的,knowledgeable,and shapelyshapely adj.样子好的,匀称的,形状美观的,定形的,有条理的.

Both men describe their justright wife by the same physical qualities but use different words. The millionaires definition of the justright wife is more elegant,whereas the poor mans definition is a more common,everyday description.

Although some men define the justright wife by her physical qualities,other men describe their justright wife by her athleticathletic adj.运动的 qualities. For example,the outdoors man may define his justright wife as a woman who loves to fish,to camp,to hunt,and to water ski,whereas the inside sportsman may define his justright wife as a woman who enjoys watching football,basketball,baseball,and wrestling. Both of these men define their justright wife by her sports qualities but in two different atmospheres.

Still,there are other men who have their definitions of the justright wife. For instance,consider the fit man and the fat man. The fit man may describe his justright wife as a woman who gets up every weekday morning at six oclock and runs two to three miles. After running,she prepares breakfast,washes the dishes,takes the children to school,and then goes to work. After work,she arrives home,washes a couple loads of laundry,goes to exercise class,picks the children up from school on her way home,and then cooks dinner. After dinner,she cleans the kitchen,bathes the children,and puts them to bed.

On the other hand,the fat man defines his justright wife as a woman who gets up at eight oclock in the morning,takes the children to McDonalds for breakfast,and drops them off at school. She then comes back home and lies on the couch watching soap operas all day. The children have to walk home from school in the afternoon. When they arrive at home,she instructs them to clean the house,do the laundrylaundry n.洗衣店,要洗的衣服,洗熨,and fix some hot dogs for dinner. Both men define their justright wife with qualities that they admire within themselves.

Men from all nationalities also have their definition of the justright wife. For example,the Italian man describes his woman as a woman who stands six feet oneinch tall with blonde hair and blue eyes,and who is well developed in the upper portion of her body. On the other hand,the French man may describe his ideal woman as a woman who stands only five feet three inches with brown hair and green eyes,and who is moderately built.

Other nationalities,such as the German man and the Spanish man,may define their justright wife as a woman with style. The German man may describe his justright wife as a woman who likes to drive expensive sports cars,a woman who visits a different foreign country every month and wears only the most expensive designer clothing,but the Spanish man may define his justright wife as a woman who enjoys giving dinner parties every weekend,wearing a lot of jewelry,and drinking expensive wines.

In addition to the other mens definitions of the justright wife,the bachelorbachelor n.单身汉,文理学士,幼雄兽 also has a definition. He says that the justright wife is someone elses wife. He picks her up in a bar,takes her to his house,and takes her home in the morning. The bachelor has no real definition for the justright wife. That is why he is still a bachelor.

情人眼里出西施

世世代代,男女结为夫妻。婚礼上的誓言将他们融为一体。他们发誓相亲相爱,至死不渝。
