SERTORIUS130?-72 B.C.by Plutarchtranslated by John DrydenIT is no great wonder if in long process of time, while fortunetakes her course hither and thither, numerous coincidences shouldspontaneously occur. If the number and variety of subjects to bewrought upon be infinite, it is all the more easy for fortune, withsuch an abundance of material, to effect this similarity of results.Or if, on the other hand, events are limited to the combinations ofsome finite number, then of necessity the same must often recur, andin the same sequence. There are people who take a pleasure in makingcollections of all such fortuitous occurrences that they have heard or...

三国演义 下卷罗贯中第五十回 诸葛亮智算华容 关云长义释曹操却说当夜张辽一箭射黄盖下水,救得曹操登岸,寻着马匹走时,军已大乱。韩当冒烟突火来攻水寨,忽听得士卒报道:"后梢舵上一人,高叫将军表字。"韩当细听,但闻高叫"义公救我?"当曰:"此黄公覆也!"急教救起。见黄盖负箭着伤,咬出箭杆,箭头陷在肉内。韩当急为脱去湿衣,用刀剜出箭头,扯旗束之,脱自己战袍与黄盖穿了,先令别船送回大寨医治。原来黄盖深知水性,故大寒之时,和甲堕江,也逃得性命。却说当日满江火滚,喊声震地。左边是韩当、蒋钦两军从赤壁西边杀来;右边是周泰、陈武两军从赤壁东边杀来;正中是周瑜、程普、徐盛、丁奉大队船只都到。火须兵应,兵仗火威。此正是:三江水战,赤壁鏖兵。曹军着枪中箭、火焚水溺者,不计其数。后人有诗曰:"魏吴争斗决雌雄,赤壁楼船一扫空。烈火初张照云海,周郎曾此破曹公。"又有一绝云:"山高月小水茫茫,追叹前朝...
什么是跨国公司?跨国公司在世界经济领域扮演什么角色,跨国公司和中国的经济发展是什么关系?所有问题都说明跨国公司和中国发展命运息息相关。有多少跨国公司进入中国王鲁湘:现在据您了解全世界有多少跨国公司,其中又有多少跨国公司已经来到中国设立它的分支机构呢?冼国明:按跨国公司统计的口径来讲,有两种不同的区别,一个是根据联合国贸发会议的区分,根据联合国的定义,就是说在本国以外,一个以上的国家从事生产经营的活动就是跨国公司,如果按这个定义,那全球,也是按照联合国贸发会议统计,在2003年,全球大概是有65000家跨国公司。王鲁湘:那其中肯定也包括中国的跨国公司。冼国明:对。冼国明:另外一种定义就是我们讲的“全球五百强”,就是美国一家杂志叫《财富》,英文叫Fortune,它是根据公司的全球销售额进行排名,排出前五百家大公司,这些大公司基本上都是跨国公司,所以我们讲的“全球五百强”,就是指这批...
The Turmoilby Booth TarkingtonTo Laurel.There is a midland city in the heart of fair, open country, a dirty andwonderful city nesting dingily in the fog of its own smoke. The strangermust feel the dirt before he feels the wonder, for the dirt will be upon himinstantly. It will be upon him and within him, since he must breathe it, andhe may care for no further proof that wealth is here better loved thancleanliness; but whether he cares or not, the negligently tended streetsincessantly press home the point, and so do the flecked and grimy citizens. Ata breeze he must smother in the whirlpools of dust, and if he should declineat any time to inhale the smoke he has the meager alternative of suicide....
题记作者简介张广天,1966年生于上海,戏剧导演、编剧,作曲家,他的创作主要集中在舞台艺术和影视剧方面。在近年的戏剧实践中,张广天是一个关键人物。诗、歌、剧三位一体的形式,使他的戏剧具有强烈的煽动性和艺术感染力。从2000年的《切·格瓦拉》,到后来的《鲁迅先生》、《红星美女》、《圣人孔子》、《风帝国》及《左岸》,张广天引发了艺术界一阵阵地震,他的作品代表了世纪之交的一种思想嬗变,成为舞台剧艺术革命的旗帜风标。题记张广天的新理想主义——评《人类的当务之急》孟梵去年上半年,他上演了名为理想主义三部曲的三部话剧,惹得所有人都紧追逼问,究竟什么才是这个时代的理想。到底是格瓦拉的革命,还是左岸的爱情,抑或是圣人孔子的传统?显然,张广天的目的,就是为了让他自己和观众在这左右冲突中把迷失的自我找回来。不论是格瓦拉还是孔子,这样的理想都是别人的,在这个看起来理想真空的年代,摆脱他人的理...

一 珂勒惠支教授的版画之入中国野地上有一堆烧过的纸灰,旧墙上有几个划出的图画,经过的人是大抵未必注意的,然而这些里面,各各藏着一些意义,是爱,是悲哀,是愤怒,……而且往往比叫了出来的更猛烈。也有几个人懂得这意义。 一九三一年——我忘了月份了——创刊不久便被禁止的杂志《北斗》〔2〕第一本上,有一幅木刻画,是一个母亲,悲哀的闭了眼睛,交出她的孩子去。这是珂的第一幅,题目叫作《牺牲》;也是她的版画绍介进中国来的第一幅。这幅木刻是我寄去的,算是柔石〔3〕遇害的纪念。他是我的学生和朋友,一同绍介外国文艺的人,尤喜欢木刻,曾经编印过三本欧美作家的作品〔4〕,虽然印得不大好。然而不知道为了什么,突然被捕了,不久就在龙华和别的五个青年作家〔5〕同时枪毙。当时的报章上毫无记载,大约是不敢,也不能记载,然而许多人都明白他不在人间了,因为这是常有的事。只有他那双目失明的母亲,我知道她...
青山依旧在-一个劳动模范的一生作者:不详 陈永贵来向高华堂学习(引言) “打起硪子,嗨嗨呀,”随着领号声接着众人齐号:“吆嗨呀嗨嗨呀!”上百人的混杂声加杂着人们的干渴和长时吼叫的沙哑声,硪子打地啪啪声,震荡云霄,对面山崖中也发出巨大的回荡声。一般的吆喝声后,是指着某人呼叫的号子声:“张大嫂呀,嗨嗨呀,挑四筐呀嗨嗨呀…………” 号子声回荡在山野。这是1958年农历的十月中旬、在湖北的郧县大堰区、翻山堰村的半山坡的一个山坳里,人们劳动的情景。翻山堰东旁崎岖的小山梁的一条渠上、一座坐北向南的山坳——赵家坡,正在拦坳口修坝,修一座库容15万m3的大水塘。丘岭的山地虽然是初冬,但山凹的阴坡上经过太阳的照射,花花拉拉的集雪片子举目可见。 乌鸦冻的缩着头呆在老树上任凭寒风迎头吹,也不想觅食。小鸟在小树丛中不时的飞来飞去啾啾的叫着,也怕天冷,不愿离开树丛窜来窜去的飞。今天是一个晴...
一正是子时,扇子岩下的河滩里,木木地响了两下。响声并没有震动夜的深沉,风依旧在刮着,这儿,那儿,偶尔有雪块在塌落了,软得提不起一点精神。响声谁也没有发觉,一只狗也没有叫。鸡窝洼几乎被雪一抹成了斜坡了,消失了从坡上流下来的那条山溪,咕咕的细响才证明着它在雪下的行踪。本来立陡立陡的人字屋架,被雪连接了后檐头到地面的距离,形成一个一个隆起的雪堆。门前的竹丛,倒像是丰收后的麦秸积子。房子的门在哪里?窗在哪里?稳稳地只听见有着男人的或吹或吸的打鼾声,和婴儿“一声惊叫,以及妇女在迷糊中本能的安抚声,立即一切又都悄然没息了。突然亮起了一点光来,风雪里红得像血,迷迷离离地晕染出一所庄院。门很响地开了,一个红的深窟;埋了门槛的雪像墙一样地倒了进去,红光倏忽消灭了。一只狗出来,瘦长长的,没有尾巴,在雪地极快地绕了一圈,猛地向空中一跃,身子像一个弓形,立即向前跑去了。狗的后边,是一个男...

在十七年里,李西凡从来没有见过真正的大人物,直到那天上午在山道上遇见盛家臣。天是浅蓝色的,太阳当头照着,才不过上午10点来钟就火辣辣的,山道两边的灌木都长到了一人来高,没有风的时候显得闷气。西凡抱着一大堆食品杂物走在上山的路上,后面的衫子湿透了黏黏地贴在脊背上,鼻头也冒出了细细的汗珠。圣马力诺孤儿院在半山腰里,而购物却要在镇上,所以西凡每天都要在这条路上跑来跑去,还好习惯了也就不觉得辛苦。听见有车沙沙从后面过来,西凡站住脚步往旁边让,顺便在肩头蹭蹭热得发痒的鼻子。“昂昂!”车喇叭声响。西凡抬头看见很酷的一辆黑色车子,车窗摇下来,一个年轻人探出头来。“早晨好。”“你好。” 西凡点点头。“请问去圣马力诺孤儿院是走这条路吗?”“对,一直开就到了,这条路只到孤儿院。” 西凡用膝盖顶顶怀里的大纸包,笑笑往上努努嘴说。“谢谢。”车窗摇上,车子慢慢开走了。滑出去十来米,又停住了,...
