He wet himself halfway to the knees before he floundered out to the firm crust. He was angry，and cursed his luck aloud. ——To build a fire by Jack London

译文：他把膝盖一半以下都打湿了，这才挣扎着爬上牢固的冰层。他气呼呼的，一边大骂自己运气不好。

点拨：curse one's luck 意为"骂自己运气不好"，极言人们遇到困境时悲观无助的心情。

The resilient tend to be people who share their emotions before becoming overwhelmed，who know how to cope with stress，and who have the ability to look for a silver lining. ——NPR

译文：有韧性的人往往是那些在情绪彻底击垮之前分享他们情绪的人，是懂得如何应对压力的人，是有能力在困境中寻求一线光明的人。

译文

① As is shown in the picture，two men react in distinctly different manners when they see a bottle get tipped over and half of the water spill. ② Wearing a gloomy look，one man covers his forehead and curses his luck，lamenting，"It's all gone!" while the other smiles agreeably and reaches for the bottle，cheering，"Luckily there's still some left"

① This portrayal reveal that in adverse situations，being optimistic or beging pessimistic directs people towards tow opposite paths. ② Just as Alexander Bell puts it "When one door closes，another opens；but we do not see the one which has open for us." ③ When obstacles confront us，assuming the worst only spells more failures，while interpreting them in a positive light always spurs us to look for a silver lining and concentrate upon addressing problems. ④ The drawbacks of pessimism and the benefits of optimism are self-evident.

① Therefore，optimism is of great signficance in our work and life. ② As an old saying goes，misfortune might be blessing in disguise. ③ When adversity strikes，instead of being blinded by pessimism. we should learn to examine it from a comprehensive perspective so as break free of despair and discover hope. ④ Besides, we should maintain a positive attitude all along by remaining gratified by what we have achieved，with an attempt to keep forging ahead and embrace various challages.

① 如图所示，一个瓶子反倒在地，里面的水洒了一半，而两个对这一幕的反应却大相径庭。② 其中一个人神情沮丧，怨声连连，手抚额头哀叹道，"全完了！" 另一人则面漏笑容去捡瓶子，说道，"幸好，还剩点儿。"

① 这幅画揭示了：在逆境中选择乐观看待问题还是悲观处理，会将人们引上截然相反的道路。②恰如亚历山大.贝尔所言："一扇门关了，必有另一扇打开；而我们经常久久地盯着那扇关上的门，懊悔不已，以致对为我们打开的另一扇门视而不见。" ③ 遭遇挫折时，把情况想到最坏只会招致更多的失败；而积极对待往往会敦促我峨嵋你寻找光明，并一心寻找解决之道。④ 悲观之弊，乐观之利，至此一目了然。

① 因此，在工作和生活中，乐观精神至关重要。② 俗话说，塞翁失马，焉知非福。③ 身处困境时，我们要学会辩证分析，从绝境中发现希望，而非被悲观消极情绪蒙蔽双眼。 ④ 此外，我们还要懂得知足常乐，尔后积极进取，迎接一个个新的挑战。
