【原】英语启蒙：值得背诵、充满智慧和哲理的英文佳句（五）

有人说，英语是交流的工具。其实，英语不仅仅可以用来交流，还能获取信息，增长智慧。

不幸的是，因为面临着考试的压力，我们的孩子们把英语肢解成一个个单词，一个个知识点，然后每天机械重复地背诵着。

更不幸的是，孩子们花费了大量时间和精力背诵的内容，在考完试之后，就都还给老师了，没有时间将所学的知识付诸于实践之中。

为了不使时光虚度，苗爸坚持每天背诵一句富含哲理的唯美的英语佳句。同时，在过去的250天里，苗爸坚持每天分享一句英语佳句，并且通过四次将前200句哲理句子进行了集中分享。

今天，我将另外50句分享出来，便于大家收集学习。前200句的分享文章，大家也可以参考一下。
