THE CALASHThe town of B had become very lively since a cavalry regiment hadtaken up its quarters in it. Up to that date it had been mortallywearisome there. When you happened to pass through the town andglanced at its little mud houses with their incredibly gloomy aspect,the pen refuses to express what you felt. You suffered a terribleuneasiness as if you had just lost all your money at play, or hadcommitted some terrible blunder in company. The plaster covering the...
《清深不寿皇后之路》作者:一碧清秋芳芳清康熙六年 正月十日觉着阳光刺眼,醒了吗,还是仍在梦里?隐约听见五娘在檐下压着嗓子,蛇蛇蝎蝎招呼小厮翻缸搬花盆的响动,我才缓缓清醒过来。前一夜折腾的不得睡眠,此时腰果然还是酸痛的,神思也懒懒的,只是不想起身。自抚着昨儿新铺茜色丝棉被,拿手指轻揉额角,头顶看得见藕荷色床幔支起的宝帐,坠着蝴蝶宝瓶花样,瑞草节花此起彼伏,润暖妃色在眼花缭乱间团团簇簇的笼着。床柱帘钩上悬挂的鹅黄荷包垂着靛青穗子,夹着捻银线穿上的琉璃珠子,一颗一颗细细密密的,满满揣着新替上的百合,趁着丝棉被里薰香缕缕的若隐若无,一点点化开在床角内造香炉腾起的烟里,瑞脑涎香,闻多了,引着点钝钝的疼。...
清晨的大地,睡熟的人们被密林中小鸟动人的轻唱唤醒,折射着东方鱼肚白的湄公河懒懒地向南蜿蜒而去,两岸群山和平原黑糊糊的身影中升起了一股股轻白色的缈缈炊烟,远处的田野上传来了牛铃的声音,浓雾中慢慢现出了各式各样寺庙的尖塔,小和尚们披着红黄色的袈裟手捧化缘食钵分头走进了村落和小镇,城市和深山中身着不同服装手持不同武器的军人们开始了严格的操练,山区出远门的人们戴着只露出一双眼睛的帽子赶着马邦顶着湿气和微寒向丛林外走去......“金三角”幽静而缓慢地开始苏醒了。 面红羞涩的太阳如同少女般从东山背后悄悄升起时,人们正急切地盼望着依仗她的光芒看清金三角将发生的一切。但金三角的大地刚触摸太阳光纤细的发稍就立即血脉喷张,热血沸腾起来,于是大量的水分被蒸腾进入空中,形成弥漫在天空中的浓雾,如同当地青年男女私会时身披的毛毯,将大地与太阳遮罩起来,将村镇、,寺庙、军队和马邦也遮起来了...
琼瑶1 民国十五年,河北宛平县,一个名叫东山村的小乡镇。 这正是初春时节,北国的春天,来得特别晚。去年冬天积留的冰雪,才刚刚融化。大地上,有一些零零落落的小杂草,挣扎着冒出了一点点儿绿意,但在瘦瘠的黄土地上,看起来可怜兮兮的。几棵无人理会的老银杏树,伸展着又高又长的枝桠,像是在向苍天祈求着什么。 小镇的郊外,看来有些儿荒凉。但是,这天的天气却很好,艳阳高照。把山丘上的岩石,都照得发亮。阳光洒下来,白花花的,闪得人睁不开眼睛。 对杜青青来说,阳光、春天、离她都很遥远。因为,她现在正坐在一顶大红花轿里,被七八个粗壮的轿夫,抬向白果庄的胡老头家里。她今年十八岁,胡老头五十八岁,正好比她大了四十岁。这还没关系,胡老头家里,已经有了一个大老婆,四个小老婆,她娶进门,将是第六个。对于这样的婚姻,她当然不可能同意,一切都是哥哥嫂嫂做的主。谁教她从小没爹没娘,依靠着哥哥...
FAIRY TALES OF HANS CHRISTIAN ANDERSENTHE LITTLE MERMAIDby Hans Christian AndersenFAR out in the ocean, where the water is as blue as theprettiest cornflower, and as clear as crystal, it is very, verydeep; so deep, indeed, that no cable could fathom it: many churchsteeples, piled one upon another, would not reach from the groundbeneath to the surface of the water above. There dwell the Sea King...
由于月色皎洁,所以眼前的一切都黑白分明。她带我急走了有十来分钟,还走了一大截下坡路,好像是到了干沟里头,然后走进一座废置了的屠宰场。即便在冬季,我仍然能闻到一股遗存的骚腥味儿。据说这两年,高地上可宰的牲口越来越少,已经关闭了好几个屠宰场。有的就此废弃了。有的,比如这一个,改作剪毛站。也就是说,到来年初夏时节,本场畜牧队和附近好些个牧业公社大队都会把羊群赶到这儿来剪毛。公家的人则开着一辆辆布满尘土的旧卡车,长途“奔袭”千百公里,从各地赶到这儿来收购高质量的羊毛。冈古拉会派出一大批出色的剪毛能手,聚集在各剪毛站上,为农场赚取这份辛苦的手工钱。剪毛站的收入(再加上农场自己卖羊毛的所得),能给农场发上两三个月的工资,应该说也是一笔不小的财政收入。高福海当然得重视这档子事,于是明令由小分队来管理各剪毛站。小分队还受各公社大队的委托,监督那些赶着羊群来剪毛的牧民,以防备他们...

There was a drabble of dead leaves on the sidewalk which was of wood, and on the roadway which was of macadam and stiff mud.
