文章摘要：美國今年，領(lǐng)著孩子們回到山里，回到山里的鄉(xiāng)下，讓他們真切的感知年的溫馨，年的溫暖，讓年文化在他們的心靈得以延展!美國散六朝時，智顗大師居天臺山，倡立一宗的教觀，后世稱之為天臺大師。美國散文窗外風(fēng)雨的交替，逐漸勾起著記憶，霜雪的嘆息，染醉了白衣。美國散文—四月的飛花，落寞的語言，一簾春雨，承載不了厚重的依戀!

英文原文YOUTH

Samuel Ullman

Youth is not a time of life; it is a state of mind; it is not a matter of rosy cheeks, red lips and supple knees; it is a matter of the will, a quality of the imagination, a vigor of the emotions; it is the freshness ofthe deep springs of life.

Youth means a tempera-mental predominance of courage over timidity, of theappetite for adventure over the love of ease. This often exists in a man of 60 more than a boy of 20. Nobody grows old merely by a number of years. We grow old by deserting our ideals.

Years may wrinkle the skin, but to give up enthusiasm wrinkles the soul. Worry, fear, self-distrust bows the heart and turns the spring back to dust.

Whether 60 or 16, there is in every human being’s heart the lure of wonder, the unfailing childlike appetite of what’s next and the joy of the game of living. In the center of your heart and my heart there is a wireless station： so long as it receives messages of beauty, hope, cheer, courage and power from men and from the Infinite, so long are you young.

When the aerials are down, and your spirit is covered with snows of cynicism and the ice of pessimism, then you are grown old, even at 20, but as long as your aerials are up, to catch waves of optimism, there is hope you may die young at 80.

中文譯文(一)

青春不是年華，而是心境;青春不是桃面、丹唇、柔膝，而是深沉的意志、恢宏的想像、熾熱的感情;青春是生命的深泉涌流。

青春氣貫長虹，勇銳蓋過怯懦，進(jìn)取壓倒茍安。如此銳氣，二十后生有之，六旬男子則更多見。年歲有加，并非垂老;理想丟棄，方墮暮年。

歲月悠悠，衰微只及肌膚;熱忱拋卻，頹唐必致靈魂。憂煩、惶恐、喪失自信，定使心靈扭曲，意氣如灰。

無論年屆花甲，抑或二八芳齡，心中皆有生命之歡樂，奇跡之誘惑，孩童般天真久盛不衰。

人的心靈應(yīng)如浩淼瀚海，只有不斷接納美好、希望、歡樂、勇氣和力量的百川，才能青春永駐、風(fēng)華長存。

一旦心?？萁?，銳氣便被冰雪覆蓋，玩世不恭、自暴自棄油然而生，即便年方二十，實(shí)已垂垂老矣;然則只要虛懷若谷，讓喜悅、達(dá)觀、仁愛充盈其間，你就有望在八十高齡告別塵寰時仍覺年輕。

中文譯文(二)

人生匆匆，青春不是易逝的一段。青春應(yīng)是一種永恒的心態(tài)。滿臉紅光，嘴唇紅潤，腿腳靈活，這些都不是青春的全部。真正的青春啊，它是一種堅(jiān)強(qiáng)的意志，是一種想象力的高品位，是感情充沛飽滿，是生命之泉的清澈常新。

青春意味著勇敢戰(zhàn)勝怯懦，青春意味著進(jìn)取戰(zhàn)勝安逸，年月的輪回就一定導(dǎo)致衰老嗎?要知道呵，老態(tài)龍鐘是因?yàn)榉艞壛藢φ胬淼淖非蟆?/p>

無情歲月的流逝，留下了深深的皺紋，而熱忱的喪失，會在深處打下烙印。焦慮、恐懼、自卑，終會使心情沮喪，意志消亡。

60也罷，16也罷，每個人的心田都應(yīng)保持著不泯的意志，去探索新鮮的事物，去追求人生樂趣。我們的心中都應(yīng)有座無線電臺，只要不斷地接受來自人類和上帝的美感、希望、勇氣和力量，我們就會永葆青春。倘若你收起天線，使自己的心靈蒙上玩世不恭的霜雪和悲觀厭世的冰凌，即使你年方20，你已垂垂老矣;倘若你已經(jīng)80高齡，臨于辭世，若豎起天線去收聽樂觀進(jìn)取的電波，你仍會青春煥發(fā)。
