【篇一】

On Optimism and Pessimism

There are two types of people in the world.

Although they have equal degrees

of health and wealth and the other comforts of life,

one becomes happy, while the other becomes miserable.

This arises from the different ways in which they consider things,

persons,and events, and the resulting effects upon their minds.

One is said to be optimistic

and the other pessimistic about everything around them.

People who are to be happy

fix their attention on the conveniences of things,

the pleasant parts of conversations,the well-prepared dishes and the fine weather

They enjoy all the cheerful things.

Those who are to be unhappy think and speak only of contrary things.

Therefore,they are continually discontented with themselves.

By their remarks, they sour the pleasures of society offend many people,

and make themselves disagreeable everywhere.

【篇二】译文

说说乐观与悲观

世上有两种人，

他们有些方面程度相同

健康，财富以及生活的舒适等方面，

然而一种人心情舒畅，而另一种人却满腹惆怅。

这是因为他们不同的方式在考虑问题分析事物，

评价他人及外界事物给他们带来的影响。

也就是有些人是乐观的

有些人却是悲观的，对于身边的一切事物来说。

快乐的人

往往把注意力集中在使人舒心的事情，

令人高兴的话语，香甜可口的饭菜和清爽宜人的天气上，

他们充分享受着人生的乐趣。

而郁郁寡欢的人言行举止却截然相反，

因此，他们自寻烦恼，

怨天怨地，牢騒满腹，触怒他人。

成了不受欢迎的人。
