探寻一生十二个关键转折点：揭秘其背后的玄妙与跌宕起伏之秘

Explore the twelve key turning points in a lifetime: Unveil the mysterious and fluctuating secrets behind them.

1. 快乐也是一天，痛苦也是一天；舒畅也是一天，忧愁也是一天；既然日子都是一天天地过，与其痛苦忧愁地活，还不如快乐舒畅地乐；人生短暂，如驹过隙，开心相伴，阳光灿烂，放开心胸，开心每天！

1. Whether it's a day of happiness or a day of pain, a day of comfort or a day of sorrow; since every day passes one by one, why not live in joy and comfort instead of enduring pain and sorrow? Life is short, fleeting as a horse through the gap, so let's be joyful and have sunshine in our hearts, broaden our minds, and be happy every day!

2. 喜怒哀乐是人之常情，生活总是由悲欢离合组成，我们不能控制自己的遭遇，但我们可以控制自己的心态。心态控制了每一个人的行动和思想，同时，也决定了一个人的视野、事业和成就。

2. Joy, anger, sadness, and joy are the common emotions of human beings. Life is always composed of ups and downs. We cannot control our own experiences, but we can control our own mindset. The mindset controls everyone's actions and thoughts, and at the same time, it also determines a person's perspective, career, and achievements.

3. 小学阶段的成绩和分数并不能说明什么，很多孩子都是到初中、甚至高中才在考试方面展现出优势的，那也是最有用的时候。

3. Academic performance and scores in the primary school stage don't say much. Many children only show their advantages in exams during junior high school, and even high school, which is also the most useful time.

4. 人生是什么？我以为人在路上、在不解和朦胧里体味尘世的悲欢离合，这就是人生。然而关于人生的确切解释，一如父亲未能理解全部人生一样，孩子也未能理解，孩子的孩子也不能理解。

4. What is life? I believe that life is about experiencing the joys and sorrows, separations and reunions of the world while on the journey, amidst confusion and ambiguity. This is what life is. However, just as the father has not been able to understand the entirety of life, neither has the child, nor can the child's child understand it.

5. 2013年，1/3的俄罗斯人表示希望加入欧盟，超半数人认为，欧盟对俄友好。时间来到2017年12月，列瓦达中心民调显示，66%的俄罗斯人将欧盟视为主要敌人之一。

5. In 2013, one-third of Russians expressed a desire to join the European Union, and more than half believed that the EU was friendly towards Russia. By December 2017, a Levada Center poll showed that 66% of Russians viewed the EU as one of their main enemies.

6. 简单，是人生的至境。小时候的欢乐，是单纯带来的。长大后的痛苦，是复杂给予的。越长大越孤单。简单，是人生的大彻大悟。无欲无求无失望，来去随缘少徒劳。简单，是最大的快乐。

6. Simplicity is the ultimate goal in life. The joy in childhood comes from simplicity, while the pain in adulthood is bestowed by complexity. The older we get, the lonelier we become. Simplicity is a profound realization in life. With no desires, no expectations, and no disappointments, we follow fate and reduce futile efforts. Simplicity is the greatest happiness.

7. 挑战自我的过程是无比快乐的，当你一次又一次地战胜自我，你才能一次又一次地冲击人生的高峰。对自我的探索和挑战是每个人毕生最重要的使命。凡事从自己身上找原因，才能跑得更快。

7. The process of challenging oneself is incredibly joyful. It is only when you conquer yourself time and time again that you can scale the peaks of life over and over. Exploring and challenging oneself is the most important mission in everyone's life. Only by finding the reasons within oneself can one run faster.

8. 一声咆哮，让困难赶快跑掉；一个信念，让魔窟逃之夭夭；一份坚定，让苦痛瞬间远离；一颗强心，让坎坷不堪一击；守住自己的信念，发出坚强的呼喊，拥抱强大的力量，展望美好的蓝天！

8. With a roar, drive away difficulties; with a belief, banish the cave of demons; with firmness, distance pain instantly; with a strong heart, make obstacles insurmountable; hold onto your beliefs, raise a strong shout, embrace powerful strength, and look forward to the beautiful blue sky!

9. 不是美貌，不是才华，也不是装男人。而是在失落、悲伤、打击和孤独后能够迅速宁静下来的心，和备受伤害后依旧留存的那一点点温暖。真正需要强大的，不是你的外壳，而是你的心。

9. It's not beauty, not talent, nor acting like a man. It's the heart that can quickly calm down after experiencing loss, sadness, setbacks, and loneliness, and that little bit of warmth that still remains after being deeply hurt. What truly needs to be strong is not your shell, but your heart.

10. 付出了汗水加心血，收获了成功加喜悦；付出了努力加拼搏，收获了成绩加欢悦；付出了坚持加不懈，收获了成果加获得；回首20xx年，实在是苦与累相伴，但愿20xx简单点，付出努力辉煌现！

10. Through sweat and dedication, we have reaped success and joy; through hard work and perseverance, we have achieved results and happiness; through steadfastness and relentless effort, we have garnered accomplishments and gains. Looking back at the year 20xx, it was indeed a year filled with hardship and toil. May the year 20xx be simpler, and may our efforts shine with brilliance!

11. 1991年12月25日苏联解体后，最大加盟国俄罗斯继承苏联大部分军事力量。拥有世上最大的核武器库。在“一超多强”的国际体系中，俄罗斯是有较大影响力的强国，其军工实力雄厚，特别是高等教育、航空航天技术，居世界前列。

11. After the dissolution of the Soviet Union on December 25, 1991, the largest constituent republic, Russia, inherited most of the Soviet military forces. It possesses the world's largest nuclear arsenal. In the international system of "one superpower and several strong powers," Russia is a major influential power. Its military-industrial capabilities are robust, particularly in higher education and aerospace technology, which place it among the world's leading countries.

12. 人生不足畏。世间万物，有幸成为人，这已足够幸运了，人生最大的不幸也比沦为其它物种的不幸强。人生是跋涉，也是旅行，是等待，也是相逢，是探险，也是寻宝，是泪水，更是歌声。

12. There is nothing to fear in life. To be fortunate enough to become a human being is already enough luck. The greatest misfortune in life is still stronger than the misfortunes of other species. Life is both a journey and a voyage, a waiting and a meeting, an adventure and a treasure hunt, tears, and also songs.

13. 困难不许困恼，贵在解决烦恼，挫折不要受挫，贵在用于拼搏，磨砺一番更有结果，付出一番更有气魄，辛苦一番更有快乐，努力一番更有成果，健康面对生活，积极向上拼搏，生活自然不再困惑。

13. Difficulty should not be allowed to trouble you; the key is to solve the problem. Don't be defeated by setbacks; the value lies in persevering and striving. Enduring some hardship will yield greater results, making an effort will exude more grandeur, toil will bring more joy, and hard work will yield more success. Face life with health and a positive spirit, and you will naturally no longer be perplexed.

14. 该发生的总会发生，不管你是否为此焦虑。向前走，向前看，生活就这么简单。每一个坚强的人，都有一颗柔软的心，摆正心态，温柔自相随，哭给自己听，笑给别人看，这就是所谓的人生。

14. What will happen will happen, regardless of whether you are anxious about it. Move forward, look ahead, life is that simple. Every strong person has a soft heart, keep a positive mindset, and gentleness will follow. Cry for yourself and smile for others, that is what is called life.

17. Everyone is born with various flaws and shortcomings. If you are not satisfied with yourself, don't think that this is how your life will be forever. A person is like a container; whatever you put inside your heart, that's what kind of person you are. Therefore, you should fill yourself with more excellent things.

20. 当时，正值德国前总理施罗德执政时期，他是著名的“亲俄派”。美国《外交政策》杂志网站称，施罗德在1998年至2005年任职期间，似乎竭力打造德俄友好伙伴关系，积极与普京发展私交。

20. At that time, it was during the tenure of former German Chancellor Schröder, who was known as a prominent "pro-Russian" figure.

21. 有的时候，你很认真地去奋斗，但没有取得辉煌的成绩，你是否应该考虑舍弃一些东西。人的生命是有限的，只有把握有限的时间和精力，相对集中地投入到某一个具体的人生目标上，才有可能成功。

21. Sometimes, when you work diligently, you may not achieve outstanding results, and you might need to consider letting go of some things. Human life is limited, and only by grasping the limited time and energy, and concentrating relatively on a specific life goal, can one possibly succeed.

22. 生活像荧屏，岁月如剧本，人生是**，不要因为剧情的曲折就心甘做配角，不要因为故事的跌宕就情愿成观众，这场**，都在看，请演好它，你绝不是“生命厂商”里的“临时演员”！

22. Life is like a screen, time is like a script, and life itself is a **performance**. Do not readily play the role of a supporting actor just because the plot is intricate, and do not happily become an audience member just because the story is dramatic. This **performance** is being watched by everyone. Please do well in it; you are not just a "temporary actor" in the "Life Manufacturer"!

23. 在操作的时候，是核算完即执行的，不要嫌麻烦，每个周/月清算一次，那样就失去了意义。

24. Therefore, do not pursue too much; the success in child education is achieved by seriously implementing just one. Because of the interconnectedness of character, the child will also grow independently and continue to expand.

25. 人生是段漫长的旅程，有坦途崎岖也有鲜花棘荆，生命需要坚强做后盾，挫折坎坷也不要乞求他人，利益面前真情也许不值一文，淡薄人情难免会有矛盾，放飞思绪点缀心灵，告诉自己我真的能行。

25. Life is a long journey, with both smooth paths and rugged terrains, and filled with flowers and thorns. Life requires strength as its support, and in the face of setbacks and difficulties, one should not seek help from others. True feelings may be worth nothing in the face of benefits, and indifference to human feelings is bound to lead to conflicts. Let the thoughts soar to adorn the soul, and tell myself that I really can do it.

26. 别人可以对不起你，但你不可以对不起自己。对自己好，珍惜自己，爱自己，是最基本的要求，也是对自己负责的表现。每一个生活在这个世界上的人，无论何时，无论发生什么事情都要善待自己。

26. Others may let you down, but you must not let yourself down. Treat yourself well, cherish yourself, and love yourself; these are the most basic requirements and a manifestation of being responsible to oneself. Every person living in this world should always be kind to themselves, no matter when or what happens.

27. 放开生活烦恼自然赢得开心，面对生活微笑自然赢得欢笑，多多放开视野自然前程开阔，和气梳理生活自然万事和谐，生活贵在一份把握，命运贵在一份坚持，理想起于心灵，成功于呵护心灵。

28. 有些人在激烈竞争的汹涛骇浪中被卷走，从此一蹶不振；有些人却迎着风口踏上浪尖，上了岸，他们成功了。因为他们多了一份坚持。风口浪尖对于他们来说不是绊脚石，而是垫高自己的基石。

28. Some people are swept away in the fierce waves of competition and never recover; others, however, ride the winds and surf the crest, reaching the shore and achieving success. This is because they have an extra dose of perseverance. The风口浪尖is not a stumbling block for them, but rather a foundation that elevates them.

29. 爱人就像粗布衣，虽然不美丽，可是能遮挡风寒。情人就像时装，感觉很美好，却不能穿出去。亲人就像老棉衣，就是出痱子，依然要捂着你。友人就像晴雨衣，需要了就穿，用过后放一边。

29. A beloved is like coarse cloth clothing, though not beautiful, it can still shield against the cold and wind. A lover is like fashionable attire, feeling wonderful but not suitable for everyday wear. A relative is like an old cotton jacket, even if it causes heat rash, it still clings to you. A friend is like a raincoat, worn when needed and put aside after use.

30. 人生是船，需要足够的水才能出发；人生是船，需要扬起风帆才能起航；人生是船，需要检查船舱才能平安；人生是船，没有一帆风顺风平浪静；人生是船，需要有拼搏精神才能到达彼岸！

30. Life is a boat, it requires enough water to set sail; life is a boat, it needs to hoist its sails to embark; life is a boat, it needs to inspect its cabin to ensure safety; life is a boat, there is no smooth sailing or calm seas; life is a boat, it requires the spirit of perseverance to reach the other shore!

32. There is a kind of happiness called "making and cherishing connections," a kind of tolerance called "as vast as the sky and as boundless as the sea," a kind of wisdom called "the great is simple," a kind of promise called "keeping faith for a lifetime," a kind of agreement called "spending old age together," and a kind of belief called "certain success." Life is short, and often laughing is health; happiness completes life. May we both be encouraged by this!

35. Learning is not limited to the student years; learning is the beginning of a better life. Whether it's choosing a non-credit course, learning certain hobbies or interests from colleagues, or even learning while driving with books on hand, try to find interests from different directions. Life will become broader.

36. 高山无语，我们自能感其巍峨；大地无语，我们自能感其广博；朝阳无语，我们自能感其温暖。大悲大爱更是无声无息，我们亦能感其心灵力量。无需诧异无声的力量，因为沉默也是一种语言。

36. The high mountains have no voice, yet we can feel their majesty; the earth has no voice, yet we can feel its vastness; the rising sun has no voice, yet we can feel its warmth. Great compassion and love are silent and unseen, yet we can sense their spiritual power. There is no need to marvel at the power of silence, for silence itself is a form of speech.

37. 菜芽专注孩子成长，帮更多父母走出焦虑，培养优秀、懂事儿的孩子。

40. 把你禁锢在空荡荡的房间，磨练意志；把你投放在无情的沙漠，让你和懦弱拼杀；把你带到荒芜的岛礁，让你和自然为伍。最后的结局，都归于了平静，你的生存，你的自身价值才真正的体现。

40. Enslave you in an empty room to temper your will; cast you into the relentless desert to fight against your own cowardice; bring you to barren islets to live in harmony with nature. In the end, all lead to tranquility, and it is only then that your survival and true self-worth are truly manifested.

41. 人生易老而奋斗的心不会老，正所谓：活到老学到老，学到七十还嫌少。人生虽短，但不应该是匆匆过客，而应该是：奋斗的激情如六月的烈火，前进的脚步若江涛海浪，遇山开山，遇水截水！

41. Life is fleeting, but the spirit of struggle never ages. As the saying goes: "Learn until you are old, and even at seventy, you will think it's still not enough." Although life is short, it should not be lived in a hurry, but rather: the passion for struggle should be as fierce as the heat of June, the steps of progress should be like the surging waves of the river and sea, breaking through mountains when they encounter them, and stopping rivers when they meet them!

47. A grand fall is better than aimless wandering. Life is but a few decades, flowing like water, unstoppable.

48. 无法改变制度，可以改变态度，无法改变环境，可以改变心境，无法改变路途，可以改变征途，无法改变追求，可以改变需求，请适应所能适应的，请改变所能改变的，这样人生才会转变！

48. You cannot change the system, but you can change your attitude; you cannot change the environment, but you can change your mindset; you cannot change the path, but you can change your journey; you cannot change your pursuit, but you can change your needs. Adapt what you can adapt, and change what you can change. This is how life will transform!

49. 人生太过匆忙，安静一下会更好，奔波太过劳累，调整一下会更好，责任太过沉重，温暖一下会更好，生活太多挫折，适当暂停会更好，给自己一丝调整，给生活一丝歇息，让生活更美好。

49. Life is too hurried; it would be better to take a moment of tranquility. Running around too much can be tiring; a little adjustment would be better. Responsibilities can be overwhelming; a bit of warmth would be preferable. Life has too many setbacks; a timely pause would be better. Give yourself a moment of adjustment, grant life a moment of rest, and make life more beautiful.

50. After the child enters primary school, parents begin to pay attention to four aspects: physical and mental development, academic performance, interests, and character and habits (nowadays, most parents tend to prioritize comprehensive quality).

51. 与俄罗斯有着传统历史友谊的法国也不例外。2003年，这两个国家共同反对美国出兵伊拉克让它们走近，直至2012年法国前总统奥朗德上台后，双方因叙利亚等问题疏远。乌克兰危机后，法国取消了与俄罗斯一项巨大的武器交易，强烈支持对俄制裁。克里米亚问题成为俄欧关系的第二个转折点。

51. France, which has a traditional historical friendship with Russia, is no exception. In 2003, the two countries grew closer together as they jointly opposed the US military intervention in Iraq. However, this proximity ended until 2012 when former French President Hollande took office, and the two sides drifted apart over issues such as Syria. After the Ukrainian crisis, France canceled a huge arms deal with Russia and strongly supported sanctions against the country. The Crimean issue became the second turning point in Russia-EU relations.

52. 每一日你所付出的代价都比前一日高，因为你的生命又消短了一天，所以每一日你都要更积极。今天太宝贵，不应该为酸苦的忧虑和辛涩的悔恨所销蚀，抬起下巴，抓住今天，它不再回来。

52. The price you pay every day is higher than the day before, because your life has become shorter by another day. Therefore, you should be more proactive every day. Today is invaluable and should not be eroded by the worries of bitterness and the sharp regret. Lift your chin, seize today, for it will never return.

53. 理想是帆，它能有力的牵引我划向成功的彼岸；理想是帆，曾多少次受到打击与无奈，是它让我树立了信心，永往直前。理想是帆，只有它，才能使自己人生这条船平稳前行，度过难关！

53. Ideals are sails that can strongly pull me towards the shore of success; ideals are sails that have been struck and faced with无奈 countless times, yet it is they that have allowed me to build confidence and move forward resolutely. Ideals are sails that, only with them, can the boat of one's life sail smoothly, weathering difficulties!

54. 你没必要为了讨厌的老板、枯燥的工作而耗费自己的生命，你有选择自己生活工作的权利。但是只要你工作一天，你就该把工作做好。个性是成功人士的专利，个性换不了钞票，换不了房子。

54. You don't have to waste your life for a讨厌 boss or a boring job. You have the right to choose your own life and work. But as long as you work for a day, you should do your job well. Personality is the patent of successful people, and personality cannot be exchanged for money or a house.

55. 命运常常是一种折磨。不论是谁，在人生中有时总难免身陷逆境，一时又无力扭转面临的颓势，那么最好的选择就是暂时的忍耐，事物总是在不断的运动和变化，在忍耐中等待命运转折的时机。

55. Fate often brings suffering. No matter who it is, one is bound to encounter adversity in life at times and may be unable to turn the tide in the face of difficulties. In such cases, the best choice is to endure temporarily. Things are always in a state of constant movement and change; wait in patience for the opportunity for a change in fate.

56. 心不妄念，身不妄动，口不妄言，君子所以存诚；内不欺己，外不欺人，上不欺天，君子所以慎独；无愧父母，无愧兄妹，无愧夫妻，君子所以宜家；不负国家，不负生民，不负所学，君子所以用世。

56. The mind does not wander in vain, the body does not move in vain, the mouth does not speak in vain; this is how a gentleman preserves sincerity. Within, he does not deceive himself; without, he does not deceive others; above, he does not deceive heaven; this is how a gentleman is cautious in solitude. Without shame to his parents, without shame to his siblings, without shame to his spouse; this is how a gentleman establishes his family. Without owing anything to the country, without owing anything to the people, without owing anything to his education; this is how a gentleman serves the world.
