英語(yǔ)作文:生命的意義
第一篇:生命的意義(The Meaning of Life)
I once got on a taxi of which the owner is a faithful reader of mine. On the hurtling bus, The driver asked me : “Mr.Lin, could you tell me what is meaning of living?”
He was the first one who asked me such a question about the life, and I was dumb to be asked suddenly.
Suddenly, the couplet which hanged on the wall of the auditorium of my middle school was floating on my mind.
The purpose of living is to develop the living quality of mankind.
(the purpose of living is to promote the living standard of mankind;)、
The meaning of life is to create the supervene lives of universe.
(the meaning of life is to carry on the continuum of the universe)
And then, I talked to the driver, “The meaning of life is to make a difference in your mind and soul, meanwhile, do something good and devote yourself to the world everyday.”
When I have said all this, we were just gone through Renai Road, where were standing beautiful trees of the each side. It is there that I saw the pretty flower blooming on the ceiba trees. How beautiful they are.
When we are making progress, that means we are ‘blooming’for ourselves. Out willing of devoting to our world is a flower for the world.
坐計(jì)程車(chē),司機(jī)正好是我的讀者。在疾駛的車(chē)上,他問(wèn)我:“林先生,請(qǐng)問(wèn)你,生命的意義是什么?”
這是第一位問(wèn)我關(guān)于生命意義的計(jì)程車(chē)司機(jī),一時(shí)之間使我怔住了。
我的腦海浮現(xiàn)出我讀中學(xué)時(shí),學(xué)校大禮堂門(mén)口的對(duì)聯(lián):
生活的目的在增進(jìn)人類(lèi)全體之生活
生命的意義在創(chuàng)造宇宙繼起之生命
我對(duì)計(jì)程車(chē)司機(jī)說(shuō):“生命的意義就是使自己每一天都有一些心靈與智慧的增長(zhǎng),每一天都對(duì)世界有一些奉獻(xiàn)與利益。”
當(dāng)我這樣說(shuō)著,車(chē)子正好穿過(guò)有美麗行道樹(shù)的仁愛(ài)路,我看到春天的木棉花是多么美呀!
我們?cè)鲩L(zhǎng)自己的智慧,是為自己開(kāi)一朵花;我們奉獻(xiàn)世界的心,是為世界開(kāi)一朵花。
第二篇:金錢(qián)與生命的意義(Money and the Meaning of Life)
Recently, a professor of philosophy in the United States has written a book called Money and the Meanlng of Life. He has discovered that how we deal with money in our day-to-day life has more meaning than we usually think. One of the exercises he asked his students to do is to keep a record of every penny they spend for a week.From the way they spend their money, they can see what they
really value in life.
He says our relation with others often becomes clearly defined when money enters the picture. You might have a wonderful friendship with somebody and you think that you are very good friends. But you will know him only when you ask him to lend you some money. If he does, it brings something to the relationship that seems stronger than ever before. Or it can suddenly weaken the relationship if he doesn't. This person may say that he has a certain feeling, but if it is not carried out in the money world, there is something less real about it.
People just have an idea of making more and more money, but what is it for? How much do I need for any given purposes in my life7 In his book, the professor uncovered an important need in modern society: to bring back the idea that money is an instrument rather than the end. Money plays an important role in the material world, but expecting money to give happiness may be missing the meaning of life.
最近,美國(guó)一位哲學(xué)教授完成了一本名為《金錢(qián)與生命的意義》的`書(shū)。他發(fā)現(xiàn)日常生活中人們?nèi)绾螌?duì)待金錢(qián)所展示出的意義比我們通常認(rèn)為的更為深遠(yuǎn)。他讓學(xué)生們所做的一項(xiàng)練習(xí)就是記錄下他們一周來(lái)所花費(fèi)的每一分錢(qián)。從花錢(qián)方式上,他們可以看到在生活中他們真正珍惜的是什么。
他說(shuō),一旦有金錢(qián)介入,通常我們與他人之間的關(guān)系就變得易于分辨了。也許你和某個(gè)人的友誼親密無(wú)間,你覺(jué)得你們是相當(dāng)不錯(cuò)的朋友。但只有當(dāng)你向他借錢(qián)的時(shí)候你才會(huì)真正了解他。如果他借錢(qián)給你,這帶給你們的關(guān)系一些什么東西使你們的關(guān)系也好像比以往任何時(shí)候都更為牢固。如果他不借錢(qián)給你,這就會(huì)突然削弱你們的關(guān)系。這個(gè)人可能會(huì)說(shuō)他有某種感情,但如果不在金錢(qián)的世界加以實(shí)施,這種感情中就有些東西不那么真實(shí)。
人們只想著要賺越來(lái)越多的錢(qián),但賺錢(qián)為什么呢?生命中的一個(gè)特定目標(biāo)需要多少錢(qián)呢?教授在他的書(shū)中揭示了一個(gè)現(xiàn)代社會(huì)至關(guān)重要的需求:找回金錢(qián)只是工具而非目的這樣一理念。金錢(qián)在物質(zhì)社會(huì)中發(fā)揮著重要作用,但期望金錢(qián)帶來(lái)快樂(lè)也許是對(duì)生命意義的誤解。
第三篇:生命的意義(The Meaning of Life)
Compared to the universe, our lives are really short, just like a meter. But the meaning of life doesn't depend on its length but contributions. For example, Marie Curie, in order to find the radium, she devoted her whole life to the research. Though the radioactive element had shorter her life, she never gave up her mind to serve the world. According to her story, I conclude that the first meaning of life is contribution. The standard of judging a life isn't how much he asks for but how much he gives away.
The second meaning of life is struggling for our goals. Each of us has goals, such as longing for position, hoping for wealth and looking forward to be loved. However, the path leading to them isn't filled with roses. But no matter how tough to accomplish our dream we should never say die. If you really want to achieve them, please keep diligent and patient just like an English motto goes;“No pains ,no gains.”
The third meaning of life is happiness. Not only should we keep happy, but also bring enjoyment to others .For example, we can have an optimistic attitude which can affect the people in our surroundings. Besides, we are supposed to be ready to help others, because in this way we can make both us and them happy .I consider it an unchangeable truth that ‘Helping others creates happiness.'
just want to say, the lives for us are limited, but we are able to make efforts to make it shine out .Believe it, though our lives are rather short, we can also make a hit .If we try our best, our lives will be meaningful as well.
和宇宙相比,我們的生命其實(shí)很短暫,仿佛只有一米。但是生命的意義并不取決于它的長(zhǎng)度,而取決于它的貢獻(xiàn)。比如,居里夫人為了發(fā)現(xiàn)鐳把她的畢生都奉獻(xiàn)到研究中。盡管放射性元素縮短了她的生命,但她從來(lái)沒(méi)有放棄為世界服務(wù)的決心。根據(jù)她的故事,我可以得出這樣一個(gè)結(jié)論,生命的最初意義在于奉獻(xiàn)。判斷一個(gè)人生命的標(biāo)準(zhǔn)不是他索取了多少而是他貢獻(xiàn)了多少。
生命的第二大意義在于為我們的目標(biāo)努力奮斗。我們每個(gè)人都有目標(biāo),比如追求職位,渴望財(cái)富,期待被愛(ài)。但是,通往它們的道路是布滿荊棘的。但是不管實(shí)現(xiàn)夢(mèng)想有多艱難,我們都應(yīng)該永不言敗。如果你真的想實(shí)現(xiàn)它們,請(qǐng)保持勤奮和耐心,就像一句英語(yǔ)座右銘說(shuō)的:“沒(méi)有付出就沒(méi)有收獲。”
生命的第三大意義在于快樂(lè)。我們不僅應(yīng)該保持快樂(lè),也應(yīng)該給別人帶來(lái)快樂(lè)。比如,我們可以抱著樂(lè)觀的態(tài)度去影響身邊的人。此外,我們應(yīng)該樂(lè)于助人,因?yàn)檫@樣我們可以使我們和別人都開(kāi)心。我認(rèn)為“助人為樂(lè)”是不變的真理。
我只想說(shuō),生命給予我們的是有限的,但是我們可以努力使它發(fā)光。相信,盡管我們的生命很短暫,我們同樣可以使它綻放光芒。如果我們盡力了,我們的生命同樣有意義。
