03)The Slave of Machine 機器的奴隸

 

     In this age of machinery, 在這個機器化的年代

when the man 當人類

is getting less and less important, 正在变得愈來愈不重要的時候

and the machine more and more important而機器却愈來愈重要,

the man人類, this slave of the machine這種機器的奴隸, is always總是

in <such> a hurry在如此忽忙地 to get somewhere else趕往某地

<that以致>he never stops他從未停下來 to think himself想想他自己

whether是否 the place he is going to他將要去的地方

will give him 將會給他<more>happiness 更多的幸福

<than比之

>the place he is already in他現處之地.

02)The Best Men in Life

 

     The men {whom I have seen succeed best in life}

have always been cheerful and hopeful men,

{who went about their business <with a smile>

<on their face>, and took the changes

and chances (of this mortal life),

facing rough and smooth alike

<as it cam>.

01)Greater Works of Art

 

     Never has the world seen greater works

of art than those (given to it by the ancient Greeks).

In fact, there are many men who think

 that <in all the years><since their time>

we have never again risen to a hight

so lofty as that (of the best)

<among the great Greek artists>.

<in all years since their time>.
