两个人,为忒修斯的能耐大还是赫拉克勒斯的能耐大,争吵得面红耳赤。但是两位神却对他们十分生气,没收了他们中一人的土地。
这就是说,对主人评头论足会带来坏处。
THE ASTRONOMER
There was once an Astronomer whose habit it was to go out at night and observe the stars.One night,as he was walking about outside the town gates,gazing up absorbed into the sky and not looking where he was going,he fell into a dry well.As he lay there groaning,some one passing by heard him,and,coming to the edge of the well,looked down and,on learning what had happened,said,“If you really mean to say that you were looking SO hard at the sky that you didn’t even see where your feet were carrying you along the ground,it appears to me that you deserve all you’ve got.”
星期六,我和爸爸去拜访慕名己久的紫金山天文台。
来到紫金山天文台,我就像金属被磁铁吸引了一样。陨石博物馆?我要去看看!我以百米冲刺的速度冲进大门,真不愧是“陨石博物馆”,里面摆满了大大小小的陨石和陨铁。那些陨石就像是一块块大小不一、奇形怪状的`黑色石头,它们来自于遥远的宇宙,因为天体引力发生变化,不慎落入地球,大部分坠落于沙漠地区。这要是落在人口密集的城市,那后果不堪设想。陨铁呢很漂亮,它光滑的表面上嵌满大大小小的黄色晶体,远看像一颗颗闪闪发亮的黄宝石。
离开“陨石博物馆”,我们走到中心地区,我惊呆了,那么多的天文仪器!有测量天体的浑天仪、古代测量时间的日冕,还有天文望远镜呢。那些天文望远镜比我的书桌还长,许多天体都是人类通过它们发现的,真是不可思议。
最后,我们登上了天文台最高处,望着那些有着白色圆顶的观测天体的建筑物,像一座座城堡一样掩映在青山绿树之中,真美呀!紫金山天文台真是一个普及天文知识、观测天体运行的好地方,我还会再来的。
