列夫·托爾斯泰《安娜·卡列尼娜》

幸福的家庭總是相似的，而不幸的家庭則各有各的不幸。

All happy families are happy alike, all unhappy families are unhappy in their own way.

查爾斯·狄更斯《雙城記》

這是最美好的時(shí)代，這是最糟糕的時(shí)代；這是智慧的年頭，這是愚昧的年頭；這是信仰的時(shí)期，這是懷疑的時(shí)期；這是光明的季節(jié)，這是黑暗的季節(jié)；這是希望之春，這是失望之冬。我們的前途擁有一切，我們的前途一無所有；我們正走向天堂，我們也正直下地獄。

It was the best of times, it was the worst of times. It was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness. It was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity. It was the season of light, it was the season of darkness. It was the spring of hope, it was the winter of despair. We had everything before us, we had nothing before us, we were all going direct to heaven, we were all going direct the other way.

弗·司各特·菲茨杰拉德《了不起的蓋茨比》

在我年輕、幼稚的時(shí)候，父親曾給了我一番教誨，我一直銘記在心：“每當(dāng)你想要批評(píng)別人的時(shí)候，”他對(duì)我說，“你就記住在這世界上不是人人都享有過你所擁有的優(yōu)越條件。'想學(xué)習(xí)更多英語知識(shí)，請(qǐng)關(guān)注口袋英語aikoudaiyy

你要是沒讀過一本叫做《湯姆索亞歷險(xiǎn)記》的書，你肯定不知道我是誰，不過沒關(guān)系，這本書的作者是一個(gè)叫做馬克·吐溫的人，他大多講真話。

You don’t know about me without you have read a book by the name of “The Adventures of Tom Sawyer”, but that ain’t no matter. That book was made by Mr. Mark Twain, and he told the truth, mainly.
