A Strong Man’s Weak Moment 坚强的人脆弱的时候
This soldier was the sole survivor of the battle. Military disciplines solidified the soldiers but most of them died in this so-called patriotic war. The soldier stood up as soon as he woke up. Extreme cold solidified water. The food had frozen solid. Such problems were not readily soluble. Its solution required a few hours. The soldier took out a solar cell. But the sun had no sooner started to shine than it was clouded over a gain. He couldn’t solve the problem now. The soles of his shoes were broken. the mud had soiled his socks. The soldier began to sob. He wanted to take a shower with soap. He wanted to drink a chocolate soda. He wanted to watch soccer game. And he missed his family. His father was a peasant, making his living from the soil. His mother was a sociologist, researching socialism. When he left to go up the line, they looked at him with a solemn expression. Sometimes, he doubted whether he could see them again. After sobbing, the soldier felt somewhat sober. He knew he must do something somehow. He took some soluble tablets first to keep himself warm. Then he began to walk forward. He firmly believed that he could get to the destination sooner or later.
这名士兵是这场战斗唯一的生还者。军事纪律让士兵们团结,但大多数人都死于这场所谓的爱国战争中。这名士兵一苏醒过来就站起来。极度的寒冷使水凝固。食物已经冻成固体了。这样的问题并不容易解决。解决需要几个小时。士兵掏出一个太阳能电池。但太阳刚有点光芒就给乌云挡住了。他现在无法解决问题。他的鞋底已经断了。泥土已经弄脏了他的短袜。士兵哭泣起来。他想用香皂洗淋浴,他想喝瓶巧克力汽水。他想看足球节目。并且他想念他的亲人。他的父亲是个农民,靠土地为生。他的母亲是个社会学家,研究社会主义。当他出发去前线的时候,他们用严肃的神情望着他。有时候,他怀疑自己是否还能见到他们。哭泣之后,士兵感觉稍微冷静了。他知道必须设法做点什么。首先他吃了些可溶性的药丸来使自己暖和些。然后他开始前进。他坚信自己迟早会达到目的地。

康纳博士在生物领域很出色。他专攻动物物种。他的专长是研究蜘蛛。康钠博士注重精神生活甚过物质生活。因此他轻蔑的唾弃他父亲的投机行为。而他父亲则出自怨恨废除了他的继承权。去年夏天,我们参加了康钠博士的探险队。我们不想只做观众。康钠博士详述了探险内容。每项工作都有特定的工具。说明书也为大家准备好了。他给我们明确的指示。然后他带上眼镜给我们展示了一些蜘蛛的样本。我们的拼写法很差,所以我们拼不出蜘蛛的名称。最后他指定会合的特定时间。次日,尽管下雨我们还是出发了。我们大家精神高涨。卡车在离开城镇之后加速。第一天,康钠博士在试图骑马时重重地摔下来。第二天,他溅出咖啡在书本上。第三天,天晴了。壮观的日出让我们惊叹不已。我们永远记得那壮丽的奇观。第四天我们看见了一个温泉。我们都到里面去泼水,除了康钠博士。他需要在做决定前推测一下形势。第五天,康钠博士发现了一个正在球体上织网的蜘蛛。他兴奋的旋转起来。我们一共花费了15天来探险。总而言之,感觉是极好的。

The Last Sail 退休之航
July 30 was the date an old captain sailed last time. His steady working style of 35 years made his status high. The statistical data from weather bureau showed there was a storm soon. Despite the statistic, the captain stuck to his duty. Nothing could change his stern mind. The steamer set out on a sunny morning. As usual, his wife bought some roses with long stems. She was stung by one of roses. The wife stirred the sugar into her husband’s coffee. The captain stuck the fork into the potato then they kissed goodbye. The captain’s father came to see him off. The stern old man stood on the dock leaning on a stick. The captain stuck his head out of window and waved to his father and his wife. The stewards had stuck sticky labels on the cargo. They were ready for sailing. Step by step, the steamer stepped up its speed and left the harbor. The status of weather wasn’t optimistic. After standing in the chilly wind for too much time, the captain felt stiff in four limbs. But he still stood steadily at the stern like a statue. The captain together with the steward stuck out the stiff sailing. The steamer passed by steep hills and was close to the destination. This stimulated the steward work harder. The captain listened to the stereo radio and steered the steamer careful into the harbor. To welcome the steamer, a long line of honor guards marched all in step. And the police stepped in to keep order.

Hard Life 艰苦的生活
There was a stony inn nearby a stream. It was a two-storey. The host was a diligent man. His wife was straightforward woman and often asked some quite straightforward questions. She cooked meal for her husband with a gas stove. But he had no stomach for supper. He strained his right arm by lifting a heavy bag just now. He strapped his arm with a cloth strap. The wife was stitching her stockings. When she sewed she made long stitches. She thought of a lot of sand things. Her husband put all their money in a company stock thus lost most of their money. Last week, their streamline car was stolen. The storage of food was not enough. The close-by store had no more food in stock, And now, the clouds threatened a stony storm. The woman couldn’t bear the stresses and strains of life. Tears streamed from her eyse. The host straightened his back. He must work out a strategy to deal with the coming storm. It would take great strength to resist the storm. First of all, he must strengthen the foundation of the inn. He stressed this to all his workers. Then he stooped to pick up his tool to work with them together. Even some strangers came to help them. Having finished work, the tired host sat down on a stool. Then he drank strawberry juice through a straw. After that, he asked all of the people to hide in the storage before the storm.

The world around Us 我们的世界
That morning was a stuffy morning. I got out of the bed and had a good stretch. My dog came to lie down beside me. I nearly stumbled over it. It liked to be stroked. I subscribed several kinds of newspaper. So after I stuffed myself full of food, I read them.There were a lot of stuffs on them. I was attracted by a piece of striking news. Because a subordinate in a film studio didn’t submit to the strict order from his stubborn manager, he was stripped off clothes and given 5 strokes of the whip. The angry workers struck to their human rights. They divided into two groups and subdivided into four groups. They strode on their sturdy legs down the street. They declared that they were not string puppets. All the other issues were subordinate to this one. The subordinate’s wife was invited to a television studio. She wore a string of pearls. Her skirt had white stripes between blue. She was a stubborn woman. Whatever happened, she would strive. It seemed that the struggle would last for some time. The second one was that a tall structure had been put up in downtown. I liked the structural idea. The third one was about building submarine cable tunnel. A company needed a submarine to submerge into the deep sea. It submitted an application for approval. After reading newspaper, I strung them together with a strip of sticky tape. Then I decided to go back to my studio.
那天早晨天气闷热。我起床后好好伸了个懒腰。我的狗跑来躺在我傍边。我差点被它绊倒。它喜欢有人抚摩它。我订购了几份报纸。于是在填饱了食物后,我开始阅读。报纸上有许多东西。我被一则惊人的消息吸引住了,因为一名在电影制片厂里工作的下属不服从一个难对付的经理的严厉要求,他被剥去衣服并被鞭击了五次。愤怒的工人们为人权而罢工。他们分成两组后又细分为四组。他们迈着强健的双腿在街上大步走。他们声明他们不是牵线木偶。相对这个问题,其他问题都是次要的。那名下属的妻子被邀请到一个电视播音室。她戴着一串珍珠项链。她的裙子是蓝白条纹的。她是一个倔强的女子,无论发生什么,她都会奋斗。看起来斗争要延续一阵子了。第二则新闻是一座高建筑物已在市中心竖立起来了。我喜欢这个建筑构思。第三则是关于建造海底电缆隧道。一家公司需要一艘潜水艇潜水至深海。公司提交了一份申请请求批准。在阅读了报纸后,我用一窄条胶带把它们捆缚在一起,然后我决定回画室去。

A War Suspect 一名战争嫌疑犯
Before the battle, soldiers swore an oath to carry out their duties faithfully. They suspended their march in front of a swamp. Soon they found they were surrounded by swarms of enemies. But the soldiers would rather die than surrender. A soldier was injured heavily, Hope sustained him in his struggle. Finally he lost his consciousness. He dreamed a black swan and several swallows flying in the sky. It was a surprising dream. When he opened his eyes, he saw a lamp suspended from the ceiling. He found he was in a hospital. The hospital was in beautiful surroundings. The branches of the trees were swaying in the wind. A surgeon asked him what’s his surname. The surgeon had saved many lives by surgery. He surpassed other surgeons in skills. The soldier took the medicing at one swallow and the surgeon took away the surplus medicines. The solider didn’t know he was under suspicion. He was suspected by his superior. Few survived after the battle. The superior was suspicious of his survival, -- he thought the soldier might be a traitor. When the soldier knew that, he felt disappointed. So he left the hospital and climbed up a high mountain. He stood on the top of it and surveyed the whole city. Little by little, he calmed down. And he dedided to survey the whole event.

A Medical Symposium 一场医学专题报告会
A medical symposium would be held in a hall. the systematic arrangement of chairs made the hall look spacious. There were two swords on the wall of the hall. They were put in symmetry. They were the symbol of the symposium. Before the symposium, the floor of the hall had been swept. All the clocks in the hall had been synchronized. A symphony orchestra came in first. They synchronized their steps. After the symphony orchestra finished its performance, the chairman stepped on platform. His assistant switched the speaker on. The chairman switched the subject from syndrome to synthetic medicine. He talked about how to produce medicine by synthesis. His speech sympathized with the audiences. A Swiss was busy making notes. He was a doctor. He was sympathetic when his patients died. So he researched different symptoms of different illnesses to work out better medicines. This Swiss wore a sweater and now he sweated all over. And a swift bee stung his hand and it swelled up. The Swiss couldn’t focus his attention on the speech. He looked out of the window. Some children were playing on the swings. They were swinging happily. At the end of the symposium, the chairman announced that he would collect good papers in a symposium.
一场医学专题报告会在一个大厅里举行。椅子被系统的摆放使大厅看起来很宽敞。大厅的墙上有两把剑,它们对称的放着,它们是专题报告会的标志。在专题报告会之前,大厅的地板已经被打扫过了。并且大厅里所有的时钟被调整成了同步。一个交响乐团最先入场。他们脚步划一的进来。在交响乐团表演完后,主席走上讲台。他的助手帮他接通麦克风。主席把话题从综合症转换到合成药。他谈到如何用合成法来制造药品。他的演讲让观众共鸣。一个瑞士人忙着记笔记。他是个医生。当他的病人去世时他会很同情。于是他研究不同疾病的不同症状以研发更好的药品。这个瑞士人穿着一件毛衣。因此热得浑身是汗。并且一只敏捷的蜜蜂叮了他手一口。他的手肿胀起来。瑞士人无法专心听演讲了。他看着窗外,一些孩子在玩秋千,他们正快乐的摇摆着。专题报告会结束时,主席宣布他会收集好的论文放进专题论文集里。

一名健谈的裁缝因制作优质西服而出名,友人把他当作是一个很温驯的人,但是他们很快就会发现自己错了。裁缝对策略很在行。他从不欺骗他的顾客。在他的概念中欺骗是一种禁忌。裁缝有一个儿子,小男孩与他父亲很想象。他非常亲近父亲。他整天象尾巴一样跟着父亲。他父亲告诉他很多有趣的故事。男孩很有天资。他10岁时拆卸了一台缝纫机。裁缝把他作为自己的接班人。他一步步教儿子。比如一开始,他教儿子怎么把价格标签放到西服上。无论何时裁缝责怪男孩什么,男孩从不回嘴。他只是记下他父亲的话,这样他很快就理解那些话。生意占据了裁缝的大部分时间。一年年过去了,辛苦的工作消耗了他的健康。裁缝每天必须吃三粒药片来治头疼。一天夜里,儿子帮助父亲脱下外套,然后他说服父亲退休。第二天,裁缝开始了他的旅游。飞机按时起飞。儿子接受了父亲给他的任务。他承担了父亲的责任, 接管了衣店。他热切的要开始从事一些工作。春天来了,树木呈现出绿色。但是裁缝死了。儿子在墙上挂了一片匾来纪念父亲。

James and Lou were teenagers. They were good friends. Whenever Lou heard a soft tap on his door, he knew it’s James, James liked to tease Lou but Lou seldom lost his temper. Their country declared a war against their neighboring country because of tariff problem. Advanced technology was used in war. The technological progress accelerated the development of weapons. New weapons were produced by new technique. The president made a tedious speech to encourage the youth to enlist. James and Lou joined the army. A highly skilled technician trained them to drive tank. Both of them tanned quickly in the sun. One day, Lou received an order to bombard a tanker. Before departure, he left a tape recorder to James. Lou saw the target through telescope. He didn’t know it was a trap. The road was covered with tar. Besides, the petrol tank in his tank is empty. The tank could not move owing to some technical reasons. The enemy surrounded the tank. Lou sacrificed his young life. When James heard of the news by telegraph, he cried Lou’s name in tears. James caught cold that night then had a temperature. His temples were very hot. He had to cool his forehead in the cold water from the tap. The war ended. James hesitated, but finally went to the telegraph office to send a telegram to Lou’s parents. Their hearts were torn by pain. They buried their son’s relics in a temple.
