Once upon a time there was a very old man and a very old woman.

They lived in a nice clean house which had flowers all around it, except where the door was.

But they couldn't be happy because they were so very lonely.

"If only we had a cat!" sighed the very old woman.

"A cat?" asked the very old man.

"Yes, a sweet little fluffy cat," said the very old woman.

"I will get you a cat, my dear," said the very old man.

And he set out over the hills to look for one.

从前有一个很老的男人和一个很老的女人。

他们住在一个干净漂亮的房子里，除了门在那里，房子周围都是花。

但是他们不高兴，因为他们太孤独了。

“要是我们有只猫就好了！”老妇人叹了口气。

“一只猫？”老人问。

“是的，一只可爱的小毛绒猫，”老妇人说。

“我给你弄只猫，亲爱的，”老人说。

他翻山越岭去找一个。He climbed over the sunny hills.

He trudged through the cool valleys.

He walked a long, long time and at last he came to a hill which was quite covered with cats.

Cats here, cats there,

Cats and kittens, everywhere,

Hundreds of cats,

Thousands of cats,

Millions and billions and trillions of cats.

"Oh," cried the old man joyfully, "Now I can choose the prettiest cat and take it home with me!"

So he chose one. It was white.

But just as he was about to leave, he saw another one all black and white and it seemed just as pretty as the first.

So he took this one also.

But then he saw a fuzzy gray kitten way over here which was every bit as pretty as the others so he took it too.

他爬过阳光明媚的小山。

他艰难地穿过凉爽的山谷。

他走了很长很长一段时间，最后他来到一座山上，山上满是猫。

这里有猫，那里有猫，

到处都是猫和小猫，

几百只猫，

成千上万只猫，

数以百万计，数十亿计的猫。

“哦，”老人高兴地喊道，“现在我可以挑选最漂亮的猫，把它带回家了！”

所以他选了一个。它是白色的。

但就在他正要离开的时候，他看到了另一只黑白相间的，看上去和第一只一样漂亮。

所以他也拿了这个。

但后来他看到了一只毛茸茸的灰色小猫，和其他小猫一样漂亮，所以他也把它拿走了。

And now he saw one way down in a corner, which he thought too lovely to leave so he took this too.

And just then, over here, the very old man found a kitten, which was black and very beautiful.

"It would be a shame to leave that one," said the very old man. So he took it.

And now, over there, he saw a cat, which had brown and yellow stripes like a baby tiger.

"I simply must take it!" cried the very old man, and he did.

So it happened that every time the very old man looked up, he saw another cat which was so pretty he could not bear to leave it,

and before he knew it, he had chosen them all.现在他看到一条路在一个角落里，他觉得这条路太可爱了，不能离开，所以他也拿走了这个。

就在这时，老人在这里发现了一只小猫，它是黑色的，非常漂亮。

“离开那一个会很遗憾的，”老人说。所以他拿走了。

现在，在那里，他看到了一只猫，它有棕色和黄色的条纹，就像一只小老虎。

“我必须接受它！”老人叫道，他做到了。

所以每当老人抬起头来，他都会看到另一只猫，它非常漂亮，他舍不得离开它，

在他意识到之前，他已经选择了他们。

美文阅读笔记

㈠面对这个越来越浮躁和急功近利的社会，我们都需要多一点认真和沉稳。

如果说性格外向的人像太阳能电池，能随时充电；那内向的人就好比充电电池，独处就是他们充电的最好方式。

喜好安静，所以能专注于自己想要读的书；更加敏感，所以容易发现生活的美好；不惧怕孤独，所以更善于与自己的内心交流，不受别的因素影响，有足够的专注力心无旁骛地投入一件事情中，出色地完成工作。

㈡假花常常比真花漂亮，虚构出来的流浪记，比真实的漂泊更动人。作家放一个梦想模板在那里，让读者觉得生活还有指望，总比时刻冷峻发问讨喜。没错，前者属于白蛇那一路，后者则是法海的范畴。

㈢对身体极限的探索，是人类孜孜不倦的追求，更高、更快、更强是竞技体育的口号。而生命的极限，在于蜕变。如果说，攀岩这项运动如同人类极限挑战运动的皇冠，那么徒手攀爬酋长峰则相当于皇冠上最璀璨的明珠。

很多人都有这样洞悉自我的时刻，不管是在攀岩还是在其他行业中。这种热爱大多数时候不是局外人所能理解的，因为忽略“生命的期待”的人永远不能想象那份期待在心中隆隆作响之声。
