微笑smile[英][smaɪl] [美][smaɪl] 中英文小故事：救命的微笑 一天，在放学回家的路上，马克看到前面的一个男孩儿被绊倒了，他搬着的书全掉在地上了，还有两件毛衣，一个棒球拍，一只手套和一个小录音机。马克蹲下来，帮助男孩捡起散落在地上的东西。因为他们同路，马克就帮男孩搬了一些东西。在路上，马克得知男孩叫比尔，喜欢电子游戏，棒球和历史，但其他科目都学得很吃力，还知道他刚刚和女朋友分手了。 他们先来到比尔家里。比尔邀请马克喝可乐，看电视，在欢声笑语中愉快地度过了那个下午。后来马克就回家了。以后他们继续在学校见面，有时候一起吃午饭，后来两人都初中毕业了。他们还进人了同一所高中。在高中期间他们仍保持着联系。离高中毕业只有三个星期的时候，比尔问马克是否能一起聊聊。 比尔向马克提起几年前他们第一次见面的日子。“你知道那天我为什么搬那么多东西回家吗？”比尔问。“那天，我把储物柜都腾空了，因为我不想留给别人一个烂摊子。我从妈妈那里偷了一些安眠药存了起来，打算回家自杀的。可我们在一起谈笑后，我意识到如果我当时自杀了，我不会再享有那段时光，还会错过以后的许多美好时光。所以，马克，你那天帮我捡起那些书时，远远不只捡书那么简单，你救了我的命。” Just a Little Smile Mark was walking home from school one day when he noticed the boy ahead of him had tripped and dropped all of the books he was carrying, along with two sweaters, a baseball bat，a glove and a small tape recorder. Mark knelt down and helped the boy pick up the scattered articles. Since they were going the same way, he helped to carry part of the burden. As they walked Mark discovered the boy’s name was Bill，that he loved video games，baseball and history, and that he was having lots of trouble with his other subjects and that he had just broken up with his girlfriend. They arrived at Bill’s home first and Mark was invited in for a Coke and to watch some television. The afternoon passed pleasantly with a few laughs and some shared small talk，then Mark went home. They continued to see each other around school，sometimes had lunch together, then both graduated from junior high school. They got enrolled in the same high school where they had contacts over the years. Three weeks before graduation from the senior high school，Bill asked Mark if they could talk. Bill reminded him of the day years ago when they had first met. “ Did you ever wonder why I was carrying so many things home that day?” asked Bill. “You see, I cleaned out my locker because I didn’t want to leave a mess for anyone else. I had stored away some of my mother's sleeping pills and I was going home to commit suicide. But after we spent some time together talking and laughing，I realized that if I had killed myself，I would have missed that time and so many others that might follow. So you see, Mark，when you picked up those books that day，you did a lot more. You saved my life. ” 中英文例句 1. Did you make somebody smile? 你使某个人笑了吗？ 2. Will you smile as much? 你还会笑得那么多吗？ 3.
