每天早8点准时更新！ 让小小的美文开启你一天的好美文心情~ Hints： none 主持: mangiferin The tides advance, the tides recede. Winter goes and summer comes. Summer wanes and the cold increases. The sun rises, the sun sets. The moon is full, the moon is black. The birds arrive, the birds depart. Flowers bloom, flowers fade. Seeds are sown, harvests are reaped. All nature is a circle of moods and I am a part of nature and so, like the tides, my moods will rise, my moods will fall. 潮起潮落，冬去春来，夏末秋至，日出日落，月圆月缺，雁来雁往，花飞花谢，草长瓜熟，自然界万物都在循环往复的变化中，我也不例外，情绪会时好时坏。 这篇材料你能听出多少？点击这里做听写，提高外语水平>>

To make a public declaration of their love and commitment, a man and woman jumped over a broom into matrimony, to the beat of drums. The broom has long held significant meaning for the various Africans, symbolizing, the start of home - making for the newlywed couple. In Southern Africa, the day after the wedding, the bride assisted the other women in the family in sweeping the courtyard, indicating her dutiful willing ness to help her in-laws with housework till the newlyweds could move to their new home. Some African-American couples today are choosing to include this symbolic rite in their wedding ceremony. 早期非洲裔美国人：跳扫帚在美国的黑奴时代，黑人男女是不允许正式结婚生活在一起的。为了向世人宣布他们的爱情和婚约，一对黑人男女和着鼓声的节奏，一起跳过一把扫帚。（扫帚对各种非洲人长期来都具有很重要的意义，因为它意味着新婚夫妇组成家庭的开始。在南部非洲，新娘在婚后的第一天要帮助夫家的其他女性清扫院子，以此表明在住进自己的新家前，她愿意尽职地帮助丈夫的家人承担家务劳动。）直至今日，一些美国黑人还在他们的婚礼上举行这种象征性的仪式。 这篇材料你能听出多少？点击这里做听写，提高外语水平>>

The zaffa, or wedding march, is a musical procession of drums, bagpipes, horns, belly dancers, and men carrying flaming swords. It announces that the marriage is about to begin. England: Traditionally, the village bride and her wedding party always walk together to the church. Leading the procession: a small girl strewing, blossoms along the road, so the bride's path through life will always be happy and laden with flowers. 埃及：在埃及，由新郎的家人，而不是新郎本人，向新娘求婚。许多婚姻还是父母之命，媒妁之言。Zaffa，也美文就是婚礼，其实是一个充满音乐的列队游行，有鼓、风笛、号角及肚皮舞，男人们手持火红的剑。这个仪式宣告，婚姻即将开始。 英格兰：按照传统，乡村的新娘和参加婚礼的人们总是一起步行走向教堂。一个小姑娘走在队列最前面，她一路抛撒鲜花，预示着新娘一生的道路上也将开满鲜花，永远幸福。 这篇材料你能听出多少？点击这里做听写，提高外语水平>>

But scientists are also happy when they become stuck, when they discover interesting questions that they cannot answer. Because that is when their imaginations and creativity are set on fire. That is when the greatest progress occurs. One of the Holy Grails in physics is to find the so-called "Theory of Everything," the final theory that will encompass all the fundamental laws of nature. I, for one, hope that we never find that final theory. I believe in the creative power of the unknown. I believe in the exhilaration of standing at the boundary between the known and the unknown. I believe in the unanswered questions of children. 当然了，科学家们探寻到问题的答案时是快乐的。但是，当科学家们受美文难题困扰进退维谷时，当他们发现了自己不能解答的新奇问题时，他们也很快乐。因为正是这个时候他们的想像力和创造力被激活了，这正是最伟大的进步来的时刻。 物理学的“圣杯”之一就是寻找我所谓的“万物理论”一种涵盖所有基本自然法则的终极理论。就我而言，我希望我们永远不要找到那个终极理论。我坚信源自未知世界的创造力，我欣赏身处已知与未知交界的喜悦，我赞许孩子们提出的哪些认人哑口无言的问题。 这篇材料你能听出多少？点击这里做听写，提高外语水平>>

下床，来到窗前凝视满天星斗。我曾有很多的疑问：那些小亮点离我们有多远？太空会永恒地存在吗？没准儿太空也有尽头，有着某种巨大的边缘？如果是这样，置身于边缘之外的是什么呢？ 我童年时代的另一个疑问是：时间是永不停息的吗？我注视着父母和祖父母的相片，努力想像他们的父母是什么样子，就这样一直想下去回溯数代，追溯久远。时间是不停息的吗？没准时间也有起点？如果是这样，在时间之前又会是什么样的情形呢？ 长大之后，我成了一名职业的天体物理学家。尽管我从没能回答这些问美文题中的任何一个，可它们仍不断地激励着我、萦绕着我、驱使着我继续从事科研究，让我在着迷于某个科学难题时以金枪鱼罐头为食，连日不眠不休。 这篇材料你能听出多少？点击这里做听写，提高外语水平>>
