英语美文阅读】人生的价值究竟在哪里,让我们一同走进:The last song in life去探求人生的真谛吧!
Every day people often saw a boy sing in a park. In fact, they didn’t know the fact that this boy had cancer for a long time and he had no more time left. He looked very optimistic and he didn’t feel
self-contemptuous (自卑的)at all.
One day, he was wandering in the park. Suddenly a faint fragrance flew over and it attracted him to come under a peach. To his joy, he saw a girl dancing elegantly.
“You are great! You look like a dancing butterfly!” watching her for a long time, then he said.
“Thank you!” this girl looked up and said shyly.
“Are you blind?” said the boy amazedly.
The girl made no voice, but she nodded hard.
“Sorry!I have no meaning to hurt you!” said the boy in a hurry.
“Never mind!” the girl seemed to be easy.
They knew each other in this way.
From then on, they often met each other. And while the boy was singing, the girl danced for him.
Time passed quickly!Many days passed before they knew it.
“Look!How beautiful the peach blossoms are!They are just like you!” said the boy unconsciously (无意地).
“But I can’t see.” the girl lowered her head.
“I’m sorry!” the boy couldn’t help regretting, he felt his heart bitten hard by a snake “How fool I am! How can I say such words before her?” His heart was soon covered by an inexplicable (莫名的) idea.
Several days later, the girl told the boy happily that her eyes would be cured quickly because someone was willing to contribute his
cornea(角膜) for her. Hearing the girl’s words, the boy also smiled happily.
That day, dark seemed to come earlier than ever. The boy said many words to the girl: “I had never believed there was forever in the world. But I know I am mistaken! There is forever indeed — friendship. Now I have to go and I am afraid that we can’t meet each other, either. I will treasure our friendship up in my memory!”
Hearing the boy’s words, the girl couldn’t help crying. Then the boy sang again with the girl dancing.
Later the boy went quietly, but he was regretless, because he gave the last song in his life to the girl.
Soon the girl’s operation succeeded, she saw everything and knew the truth, too. To people’s surprise, the peach didn’t blossom that year.
When the girl came to the appointed place before with tears, she seemed to see the boy singing and walking to her in the setting sun. http://www.ryedu.net/syy/yywh/201002/16937.html
