feeling of youth
no young man believes he shall ever die. it was a saying of my brother's, and a fine one. there is a feeling of eternity in youth, which makes us amend for everything. to be young is to be as one of the immortal gods. one half of time indeed is flown-the other half remains in store for us with all its countletreasures; for there is no line drawn, and we see no limit to our hopes and wishes. we make the coming age our own-
the vast, the unbounded prospect lies before us.
death. old age. are words without a meaning. that paby us like the idea air which we regard not. others may have undergone, or may still be liable to them-we "bear a charmed life“, which laughs to scorn all such sickly fancies. as in setting out on delightful journey, we strain our eager gaze forward-
bidding the lovely scenes at distance hail!
and see no end to the landscape, new objects presenting themselves as we advance; so, in the commencement of life, we set no bounds to our inclinations. nor to the unrestricted opportunities of gratifying them. we have as yet found no obstacle, no disposition to flag; and it seems that we can go on so forever. we look round in a new world, full of life, and motion, and ceaseleprogress; and feel in ourselves all the vigor and spirit to keep pace with it, and do not foresee from any present symptoms how we shall be left behind in the natural course of things, decline into old age, and drop into the grave. it is the simplicity, and as it were abstractedneof our feelings in youth, that (so to speak) identifies us with nature, and (our experience being slight and our passions strong) deludes us into a belief of being immortal like it. our short-lives connection with existence we fondly flatter ourselves, is an indissoluble and lasting union-a honeymoon that knows neither coldness, jar, nor separation. as infants smile and sleep, we are rocked in the cradle of our wayward fancies, and lulled into security by the roar of the universe around us0we quaff the cup of life with eager haste without draining it, instead of which it only overflows the more-objects prearound us, filling the mind with their magnitude and with the strong of desires that wait upon them, so that we have no room for the thoughts of death.
From Monday until Friday most people are busyworking or studying,but in the evenings and off weekends they are free to relax and enjoy themselves.Some watch television or go to the movies;others participate in sports.It depends on individual interests.There are many different ways to spend our spare time.
Almost everyone has some kind of hobby.It may be anything from collecting stamps to making model airplanes.Some hobbies are worth a lot of money; others are valuable only to their owners.
I know a man Who has a coin collection worth several thousand yuan.A short time ago he bought a rare ten-yuan piece worth 250 yuan.He was very happy about the purchase and thought the price was reasonable,on the other hand,my son collects match boxes.He has almost 600 of them but I doubt if they are wortfi any money.However,to my son they are extremely valuable.Nothing makes him happier than to find a new match-box for his collection.
That's what a hobby means,i guess.It is something we like to do in our spare time simply for the fun of.it.The value in money is not important,but the pleasure it gives us is.
in the matter of courage we all have our limits. there never was a hero who did not have his bounds. i suppose it may be said of nelson and all the others whose courage has been advertised that there came times in their lives when their bravery knew it had come to its limit.
i have found mine a good many times. sometimes this was expected--often it was unexpected. i know a man who is not afraid to sleep with a rattle-snake, but you could not get him to sleep with a safety-razor.
i never had the courage to talk across a long, narrow room. i should be at the end of the room facing all the audience. if i attempt to talk across a room i find myself turning this way and that, and thus at alternate periods i have part of the audience behind me. you ought never to have any part of the audience behind you; you never can tell what they are going to do.
i'll sit down.
I received a devastating blow to my self-confidence in the first interview of my college years. I applied to be a host in our Student Acting Troupe and felt confident that I would be accepted. But one of the panel members told me: "You seem inadequate and you are a little vertically-challenged." My life has never been the same since. I used bigger heels to complement my height and psychological maneuvers and tricks to hide my lack of confidence. But no matter how hard I tried to look the part, there was still something missing.
As president of English Club, I organized the rehearsal of Snow White for an English party. Unfortunately, we could not find an actor to be the last dwarf. It had to be someone who was humorous by nature and fluent in English. Suddenly, all eyes turned to me, and I knew I would have to be the dwarf. To my great surprise and delight, once on stage, I was totally absorbed in the performance and my humorous nature was put to full use. As the dwarf, I was a big hit.
I like reading books very much,because there are lots of interesting things in them.
Two years ago,I didn't like reading very much.I had plenty of time,but I spent lots of time on playing with computers.When I was very young,I didn't think reading book was interesting,because I found nothing more interesting than the computer games.
I've changed now.I enjoy reading novels,because there're lots of interesting stories.I love to read Harry Potter.That's a good novel.I know that it is one of the best-sellers in England.I'm always lose myself in the interesting stories.
I hate the words like "to be continued" in a novel.That makes me very sad,because I don't know the end of the story.I also hate the words like "the end",because I want to read more.Some of my friends think that I'm strange.
Maybe you can find the interesting things in a book,so don't waste your time in the computers any more.If you read very much,you抣l get lots of knowledge.
