Susie Smith came home from school one day, and had no sooner entered the sitting room than she burst into tears.

一天，蘇西.史密斯從學(xué)?；氐郊遥贿M(jìn)客廳就淚流滿面地哭了起來(lái)。

"What is the matter, my dear child?" said her mother, drawing her daughter to her side and smiling.

“因?yàn)槭裁词掳。矣H愛(ài)的寶貝？”媽媽把女兒拉到身邊，微笑著說(shuō)。

"O mother, matter enough," sobbed Susie. All our class must bring in compositions to-morrow morning, and I never, never can write one.

“哦，媽媽?zhuān)喈?dāng)重要的事，”蘇西抽泣著，“我們班上的所有學(xué)生明天都必須帶去一篇作文，而我一直寫(xiě)不出來(lái)。

We must write twelve lines at least, and I have written only a few words after trying nearly all the afternoon.

我們要寫(xiě)至少12行，我整個(gè)下午只寫(xiě)了幾個(gè)詞。

See what work I have made of it!

您看看我寫(xiě)出來(lái)的。

Mrs. Smith took the rumpled, tear-stained paper which Susie held in her hand, and glanced at what she had written.

史密斯夫人接過(guò)蘇西手里拿著的那張皺巴巴、沾滿淚水的紙張，飛快地看了一眼她已經(jīng)寫(xiě)下的東西。

In a careful hand she had tried to write upon three themes: "Time," "Temperance," and "Industry."

她很認(rèn)真的試圖展開(kāi)寫(xiě)三個(gè)主題：“時(shí)間”，“自制”和“勤奮”。

Time is short. We should all improve our time.

時(shí)間很短暫。我們應(yīng)該改善對(duì)時(shí)間的利用。

Temperance is a very useful thing.

自制是非常有用的事。

We should all be industrious if we wish to do anything in the world.

如果我們想在世界上做成任何事都要勤奮。

These sentences were all she had written.

這些是所有她寫(xiě)下來(lái)的句子。

"Now," said Susie, I can't think of another word to say upon any of these subjects,

“現(xiàn)在，”蘇西說(shuō)，“我想不出任何與這些主題相關(guān)的其他詞語(yǔ)了，

and I know I shall have to go to school without a composition,

我想明天上學(xué)我肯定交不了作文了，

for I won't be so mean as to copy one from a book, or to ask you or papa to write one for me.

因?yàn)槲乙膊粫?huì)惡劣到從書(shū)上抄一篇，或是讓您或爸爸給我寫(xiě)一篇。

"That is right, my dear," said her mother.

“那就對(duì)了，我的寶貝，”媽媽說(shuō)，

You will be far happier with a poor composition, if it is all your own, than with a fine one written by somebody else.

只要是你自己寫(xiě)出的作文，就算稍微差些，你也會(huì)感覺(jué)比別人給你寫(xiě)一篇快樂(lè)得多。

But cheer up.

振作起來(lái)。

You have not begun right—you have been trying to write upon subjects that you know nothing about.

你的開(kāi)頭沒(méi)有寫(xiě)好——你一直在想寫(xiě)些你不了解的主題。
