走一步再走一步原文
那是费城7月里一个闷热的日子，虽然时隔五十七年，可那种闷热我至今还能感觉得到。当时和我一起的五个小男孩，因为玩弹子游戏玩厌了，都想找些新的花样来玩。
“嗨！”内德说，“我们很久没有爬悬崖了。”
“我们现在就去爬吧！”有个孩子叫道。他们就朝一座悬崖飞跑而去。
我一时拿不定主意。虽然我很希望自己也能像他们那样活泼勇敢，但是自我出世以后，八年来我一直有病，而且我的心里一直牢记着母亲叫我不要冒险的训诫。
“来呀！”我最要好的朋友杰利对我叫喊，“别做胆小鬼。”
“我来了！”我一面应着，一面跟着他们跑。
我们最后来到一处空地。那座悬崖就耸立在空地的另一边。它是一堵垂直的峭壁，壁面有许多凸出来的岩石、崩土和蓬乱的灌木。大约只有二十米高，但在我眼中却是高不可攀的险峰。
其他孩子一个接一个地向上爬，朝着一块离崖顶还有三分之二路程的狭小岩石架进发。我落在最后，全身颤抖，冷汗直冒，也跟着他们向上爬。我的心在瘦骨嶙峋的胸腔里咚咚直跳。
我终于爬上去了，蹲在石架上，心惊肉跳，尽量往里靠。其他的孩子慢慢地向石架边缘移动，我看在眼里，吓得几乎晕倒。
接着，他们又开始向崖顶攀爬。他们打算从崖顶沿着一条迂回的小路下山回家。
“嗨，慢着，”我软弱地哀求道，“我没法——”
“再见！”其中一个孩子说。其他孩子跟着也都哈哈大笑起来。
他们左折右转地爬上了崖顶，向下凝视着我。“如果你想待在那里，就待着好了。”有个孩子嘲笑道，“不用客气。”杰利看来好像有点不放心，但还是和大家一起走了。
我从石架向下望，感到头晕目眩；我绝对没法爬下去，我会滑倒摔死的。但是，往崖顶的路更难爬，因为它更陡，更险。我听见有人啜泣，正纳罕那是谁，结果发现原来是我自己。
时间一分一秒地过去，暮色开始四合。在一片寂静中，我伏在岩石上，恐惧和疲乏使我全身麻木，不能动弹。
暮色苍茫，天上出现了星星，悬崖下面的大地越来越暗。这时，树林里有一道手电光照来照去。我听到了杰利和我父亲的声音！父亲的手电光照着我。“下来吧，孩子，”他带着安慰的口气说：“晚饭做好了。”
“我下不去！”我哭着说，“我会掉下去，我会摔死的！”
“听我说吧，”我父亲说，“不要想着距离有多远。你只要想着你是在走一小步。你能办得到的。眼睛看着我电筒的光照着的地方，你能看见石架下面那块岩石吗？”
我慢慢地把身体移过去。“看见了。”我说。
“好，”他对我说，“现在你把左脚踏到那块岩石上。不要担心下一步。听我的话。”
这似乎能办得到。我小心翼翼地伸出左脚去探那块岩石，而且踩到了它。我顿时有了信心。“很好，”我父亲叫道，“现在移动右脚，把它移到右边稍低一点的地方，那里有另外一个落脚点。”我又照着做了。我的信心大增。“我能办得到的。”我想。
我每次只移动一小步，慢慢爬下悬崖。最后，我一脚踩在崖下的岩石上，投入了父亲强壮的手臂中。我先是啜泣了一会儿，然后，我产生了一种巨大的成就感。这是我永远忘不了的经历。
我曾屡次发现，每当我感到前途茫茫而灰心丧气时，只要记起很久以前我在那座小悬崖上所学到的经验，我便能应付一切。我提醒自己，不要想着远在下面的岩石，而要着眼于那最初的一小步，走了这一步再走下一步，直到抵达我所要到的地方。这时，我便可以惊奇而自豪地回头看看，自己所走过的路程是多么漫长。

It was in Philadelphia in July a muggy day, although for the first time in fifty-seven years, but I can still feel that hot.At that time, and I together with the five young boys, because playing marbles to play tired, want to find some new tricks to play.
"Hey!"Ned said, "we haven't climb the cliff."
"We are now going to climb!"A child cried.They went flying towards a cliff.
I do not mind.Although I very much hope that they could be like them and spirited, but the self was born eight years later, I have been ill, but my heart always remember my mother told me not to adventure.
"Come on!"My best friend Jerry shout at me, "don't be a coward."
I'm coming.I should be, a run with them.
We finally came to a clearing.The cliff on the stands in the open space on the other side.It is a vertical cliff, wall has many convex out of the rock, collapse of soil and disheveled shrubbery.Only about twenty meters in height, but in my eyes is too high to be reached to the peak.
The other children one by one to climb, towards a block away from the cliff top there are 2/3 narrow ledge on the journey.I fall at the end, trembling, broke out in a cold sweat, followed them up.My heart is become as emaciated as a fowl chest thumping.
I finally climbed it, squatting on the shelf, shudder with fear, as far as possible to rely on.The other children slowly to the shelf edge mobile, I see in the eye, was almost fainted.
Then, they began to climb the cliff top.They intended from the cliff top along a circuitous path down home.
"Hey, wait a minute," I am weak pleaded, "I can't --"
Bye.One of the children said.The other children to follow are laughing.
They turn left turn right up on the top of the cliff, staring down at me."If you want to stay there, stay there."Have the children laughed, "you're welcome."Jerry seems a bit worried, but still we walked together.
I looked down from the shelf, feel be dizzy; I never climb down, I will slip up.However, to the top of the cliff road more difficult to climb, because it is steeper, more risks.I heard someone weeping, was surprised that who is, results found out my own.
The seconds ticked, start four twilight.In silence, I am on the rock, fear and fatigue make my whole body numb, unable to move.
Spreading shades of dusk, the sky stars appeared, cliff earth grows dark.Then, the woods have a flashlight to shine to.I hear he and my father's voice!According to my father's hand electro-optic."Come, boy," he took comfort tone: "supper ready."
"I do not go!"I cried, "I fall, I will fall to his death!"
"Listen to me," my father said, "don't think about how far.As long as you think you are to take a small step.You can do it.Look into my eyes of torch light place, you can see the stone rack below the rock?"
I slowly walked my body to move past."See."I said.
"Well," he said to me, "now you take the left foot to the rock.Don't worry about the next step.Listen to me."
This seems to be able to do.My left foot to explore with great care out of the rock, and stepped on it.I suddenly have confidence."Very good," my father exclaimed, "now move the right foot, move it to the right a little lower place, there was another goal."I have done it.My confidence."I can do it."I want to.
Every time I move only a small step, slowly climbed down the cliff.Finally, I stepped on the cliff rock, into the strong arms of father.First I weep for a while, then, I have a great sense of achievement.This is I will never forget the experience.
I have discovered, and every time I feel the boundless future and get disheartened, just remember I long ago in a small cliff learned, I can cope with all the.I reminded myself, don't think far below the rock, and to focus on the first step, take this step down a step, until the arrival of my going to the place.At this moment, I can surprise is proud to have a look back, they traveled so long.
