美文，《法漢詞典》譯為“純文學”，法文《拉魯斯普通名詞大詞典》中的定義是：“文學、修辭、詩歌藝術的總體，”修辭和詩歌也可以由“文學”來概括。以下是小編整理的愛情的英語美文，歡迎閱讀！

The following story took place long ago in Israel. One day when government officials were rebuilding a barn, they found a mouse hole in a corner and used smoke to force the mice inside the hole to come out. A while later they indeed saw mice running out, one after another.

Then, everyone thought that all the mice had escaped. But just as they just about to start to clean up, they saw two mice squeezing out at the exit of the hole. After some endeavor, the mice finally got out. The strange thing was that after they came out of the hole, they did not run away immediately. Instead, one chased after the other near the exit of the hole. It seemed that one was trying to bite the tail of the other.

Everyone was puzzled, so they stepped closer to take a look. They realized that one of the mice was blind and could not see anything, and the other one was trying to allow the blind mouse to bite on his tail so he could pull the blind one with him to escape.

After witnessing what happened, everyone was speechless and lost in thought. During meal time, the group of people sat down in a circle and started to chat about what happened to the two mice.

One serious Rome official said: “I think the relationship between those two mice was that of emperor and minister.” The others thought for a while and said: “That was why!” Thus the Rome official showed his arrogance superciliously.

A smart Israeli said: “I think the relationship between those two mice was husband and wife.” Again the others thought for a while, and all felt it made sense; so they expressed assent. Therefore, the Israeli’s countenance showed self-satisfaction.

A Chinese, who was accustomed to the firm tradition of loyalty to parents, said: “I think the relationship between those two mice was that of mother and son.” Once again the others thought for a while, and felt this was more reasonable. So they expressed assent yet another time. Therefore, the face of the Chinese conveyed professional humility.

At that moment, one pure-minded Samaritan who was squatted on the ground resting his chin in his palms, bewilderedly looked at other people, and asked: “Why did those two mice have to have a certain relationship?”

Suddenly, the atmosphere froze. Stupefied, the group looked back at the Samaritan and remained speechless. The Rome official, the Israeli and the Chinese who had spoken earlier all lowered their heads in shame, and did not dare to respond.

In fact, the true love is not established on benefit, friendship and loyalty or blood relationship. Instead, it is based on no relationship.

The thermometer had dropped to 18 degrees below zero, but still chose to sleep in the porch as usual. In the evening, the most familiar sight to me would be stars in the sky. Though they were a mere sprinkle of twinkling dots, yet I had become so accustomed to them that their occasional absence would bring me loneliness and ennui.

It had been snowing all night, not a single star in sight. My roommate and I, each wrapped in a quilt, were seated far apart in a different corner of the porch, facing each other and chatting away.

She exclaimed pointing to something afar, “Look, Venus in rising!” I looked up and saw nothing but a lamp round the bend in a mountain path. I beamed and said pointing to a tiny lamplight on the opposite mountain, “It’s Jupiter over there!”

More and more lights came into sight as we kept pointing here and there. Lights from hurricane lamps flickering about in the pine forest created the scene of a star-studded sky. With the distinction between sky and forest obscured by snowflakes, the numerous lamp-lights now easily passed for as many stars.

Completely lost in a make-believe world, I seemed to see all the lamplights drifting from the ground. With the illusory stars hanging still overhead, I was spared the effort of tracing their positions when I woke up from my dreams in the dead of night.

Thus I found consolation even on a lonely snowy night !

　　擴充套件閱讀：美文概念

美文，是一個與時俱進的概念。

　　獨立文體美文

周作人最早從西方引入“美文”的概念，於1921年發表《美文》，提倡“記述的”、“藝術的”敘事抒情散文，“給新文學開闢出一塊新土地”。王統照、傅斯年、胡適等曾撰文起而應和，冰心、朱自清、郁達夫、俞平伯、徐志摩和周作人自己等一大批作家富有成效的拓荒，徹底打破了美文不能用白話的迷信，美文作為一種獨立文體的`地位遂得以在文學史上確立。

作為獨立文體的美文，實質是散文的一種。

　　廣義的美文

是指不帶實用目的專供直覺欣賞的作品，帶有實用目的之寫作，例如新聞、公文、論述等可統稱為雜文，美文重感性，長於抒情；雜文重知性，長於達意。不過兩者並非截然可分，因為雜文寫好了，可以當美文來欣賞，而美文也往往為實用目的而寫作。
