Wolf, meeting with a Lamb astray from the fold, resolved not to lay violent hands on him, but to find some plea, which should justify to the Lamb himself his right to eat him. He thus addressed him:"Sirrah, last year you grossly insulted me." "Indeed," bleated the Lamb in a mournful tone of voice, "I was not then born." Then said the Wolf, "You feed in my pasture."
"No, good sir," replied the Lamb, "I have not yet tasted grass." Again said the Wolf, "You drink of my well." "No," exclaimed the Lamb, "I never yet drank water, for as yet my mother′s milk is both food and drink to me." On which the Wolf seized him, and ate him up, saying, "Well! I won′t remain supperless, even though you refute every one of my imputations."The tyrant will always find a pretext for his tyranny.
狼和小羊
一只狼瞧见一只迷路失群的小羊,决定暂缓下毒手,想先找一些理由,对小羊证明自己有吃它的权利。它就说:「小鬼!你去年曾经骂过我。」小羊可怜地说:「老实说,我去年还没有出生呢。」狼再说:「你在我的草地上吃过草。」
小羊回答说:「不,好先生,我还未曾尝过草的味道呢。」狼又说:「你喝过我井里的.水。」小羊叫道:「不,我从没有喝过水,因为直到今天为止,我都是吃着母亲的奶汁。」狼一听这话,便抓住它,把它吃下去,便说:「好!即使你驳倒我每一句话,我终究要吃晚餐的!」暴君总有他暴行的借口。
爱情是一张票根,凭它我们乘上时光机器,穿过长长短短的岁月,寻找那么一些些曾经让我们怦然心动的回忆。爱情也是一张船票,它曾漂荡在大西洋的无垠碧海,沉入海底几万英尺的寂寞深渊。爱情还是一张电影票,它见证了十五年光阴似水,历久弥新,再次击中我们怅然若失的心。有些事,无法启齿,终是冷暖自知,仿佛自己私密于心的那些恋爱琐事,尘封在记忆的底端,却时不时情不自禁,想拿出来回味一番。
说到爱情,最美不过天长地久、海枯石烂,大抵脱不出一个“永恒”。与时间赛跑,我们永远都只会输,不论你爱得有多轰轰烈烈、惊天动地,最终不过是历史车轮碾过的一抔黄土、一缕尘埃。《泰坦尼克号》的动人之处,或许就在于那穿越时光,永远不变的爱情。当老得不能再老的罗丝爬上船头,将价值连城的“海洋之心”扔向大海,以纪念她的爱情以及她于海底长眠的爱人时,我们又有多少人能不动容呢?
当杰克在平静冰冷的海面和罗斯说着那些临终的嘱托,那不是什么海誓山盟,不是什么甜言蜜语,只是一些很小很小的对生活和生命的期许,杰克给罗斯的温暖从相遇到生命的终结,狠狠戳中泪点。很多时候,爱情之所以让我们觉得值得铭记,就在于这些细小的温暖,给了我们勇敢走下去的力量。
When I was a freshman in college I watched the film Gua Sha Treatment for the first time, now I am a junior student and I come back to review the movie from a multicultural aspect, I have many different feelings after watching the film again.
At the beginning of the film, XuDatong is given an award and later he delivers a speech. What makes me impressed most is in his speech he says “one day I will become one of you, a truly successful American, today this award proved that America is a true land of opportunity and I am the living proof of that.” At that moment Xu thinks he has realized his American Dream totally with his lovingly wife and adorable son. However, I think it is ironical that to make a speech like that and I assume it is made on purpose to hind a clue for the story's development. How many non—American people have such a beautiful American dream? One of my classmate studies in American now and before he went aboard he told me his American dream is he can stand at the top of the New York. To be honest, I also dream that one day I can get the Green Card living there happily and successfully maybe working at the Wall Street. When Xu gets the award he thinks he entirely melted in the melting pot neglecting the multicultural obstruct, later the plot goes against the way he thinks. And later Quinlan asked Xu'why you be the scapegoat of your father?' Xu answers 'because he is Chinese.' Then maybe Xu knows that there is always a wide gap between Chinese and American cultures.
The second scene is Xu hit his son Denis because Denis hit the son of xu's boss, at the middle of the film xu tells his boss that he hit his own son is only to show his respect to his boss John Quinlan, that time Quinlan feels puzzled “what a Chinese logic”,yes, American can never understand such a logic full of Chinese characteristic, because they respect everyone including the children, they won't beat a child to please the boss, and there is no such a conception of degree between employee and employer, they feel everyone is equal, which is quite different from china.
Connected to the second scene, the third difference I want to analyze is the care for the children. In America, people pay more attention to the right of children which can be seen from the law—leaving children alone at home is illegal, while in China it is so common that almost everyone may experience such loneliness. And Children Welfare Agency does work in America which shows the importance Americans attach to children's right. What's more, I remember a line 'No one won the case, especially the child.' In my opinion, it also manifests the universal concern from the American public to the children.
The fourth aspect is following the procedure, in the film, more than there times, the people focus on the rule, the law, the procedure. At the Christmas Eve Xu wants to return back to his home pretending as a Santa Claus, what a pity, the security recognizes him and persuades 'you are always a good tenement, never causes troubles for me.' And another scene is at the end of the film , the judge says 'I have to follow the procedure.' However, in China people always have to ask for a favor to do something, and later you have to pay back the favor,for myself, I prefer the American style, strict to the procedure.
The fifth and the last point is the humors, Quinlan says 'you can't fall, your health security is the company paid.' 'Datong, welcome home, maybe next time, you can come from the front door.' 'dady, why you come from the window' ' because we don't have a chimney.' I really adore this distinguished American humor, especially in dangerous situations, which is quite rare in China.
That's my whole reaction to Gua Sha Treatment.
There was a farmer in the Song Kingdom in ancient China. He worked in his field day after day. In good harvest years, he could only have enough food to eat and enough clothing to wear. If the field failed to produce enough crops, he had to go hungry. This farmer wanted to improve his life. But he was too lazy and too cowardly. He always dreamed of having unexpected fortune.
A miracle took place at last. One day, when he worked in the field, some people were hunting nearby. They shouted loudly one after another. Some little animals were running desperately. Suddenly, a hare dashed itself headlong against the stump of a dead tree in his field and died.
That day, he had a good meal.
From that day on, he no longer worked in his field. From morning till night, he stayed by that miraculous stump, waiting for another hare. Will the miracle happen again?
People often use the set phrase “staying by a stump waiting for more hares to come and dash themselves against it" to refer to persons dreaming to reap without sowing.
在战国时代的宋国,有一个农民,每天都很辛苦地在田地里干活.遇到好年景,也不过刚刚吃饱穿暖;要是遇到灾荒,他就得忍饥挨饿了.他很想能过上好一点的日子,可是他太懒,胆子又特小,干什么都是又懒又怕的,总是想着能碰到送上门来的意外之财就好了。
奇迹终于发生了。一天,他正在田里干活,一群打猎的人靠近了。吆喝之声四处起伏,受惊的小动物们没命地奔跑。突然, 有一只兔子,不偏不倚,一头撞死在他田边的树根上。
这天,他美美地饱餐了一顿。
从此,他就不再种地了,一天到晚守着那个神奇的.树根,等着奇迹再次出现。
人们后来就常用“守株待兔”这个成语来形容那些老梦想着不耕种就会有收获的人。

上个星期六,我和爸爸一起去看电影:少年派的奇幻漂流。为了能买到票,我们早早地先去买半价票,然后我们再到肯德基去吃早餐。吃完早餐,电影始的时间刚刚好到了,我们快速上楼进了放映厅,坐下来,开始看电影。
这部电影讲的是一个少年人的冒险故事,它是以一种回忆的方式来进行拍摄的。有一个叫派的印度少年人,从小生活在一个温暖的家庭里,他爸爸开了一个动物园。但是随着派的慢慢长大,环境也在改变,他家的动物园无法经营下去了。派的爸爸决定全家移到加拿大去,同时把动物也运到那边去卖掉。登船日期到了,派和他的家人上了船出发了。路途中,他们遇到了暴风雨,派在这次灾难中失去了家人,他自己却被船员送到了救生艇上,但是几只动物也到了救生艇上,特别是孟加拉虎,派非常害怕。老虎吃掉了船上的所有动物,派必须冷静地面对危险,勇敢机智地与老虎一起生存下来。最后派得救了,老虎也回到了树林。
电影放完了,我慢慢走出了电影院。通过这部电影,我懂得了遇到危险要冷静,不要慌张,再想办法脱离危险。或者一开始就用聪明机智的办法尽量避免危险。
