校園月夜(Moonlit Night on the Campus)

校園月夜(moonlit night on the campus)

it was a quiet night in october. having read for a couple of hours, i closed my book and went ont for a walk on the campus. the moon was high above, bright and beautiful. the four blocks of grey dormitory buildings stand in neat array, bathed in silvery light. shining magnificently, the moon floated in the thin sky. she followed me as i walked. it is always like this. when the moon shines, there are very few stars in the sky,so few that i can count them. they are some distance away from the shining moon.

i looked at the moon and murmured to myself: oh, moon, female friend of ours, how many people sing of you; how many people write about you. you witness all the good and evil on earth, yet you always keep your mouth shut, showing a sweet smile and soothing the bitter heart. it seems that all your virtue and power he in tolerance and kindness.

walking along, i came to the students' dormitory. dim lights flickered above the noodle stalls. the pedlars were sitting there minding their own business. from the windows, the lamplight came out. inside, some students were playing cards. the dim tights and the lamplight somewhat diminished the brightness of the moon. i was a little disgusted.

walking further along, i saw the library and the classroom budding well lit up, as bright as day. the students there were working hard. they rack their brains tackling difficult scientific problems. a sense of admiration welled up inside myself. involuntarily, i called to the moon from my heart. "oh, moon, i could find your peers, rivals who could match yon. since the advent of electric light, you have been somewhat neglected, yet how can we forget you when we travel on the ocean or in the desert? you light up the way for those who need you."

here i came to the school garden. the laurels gave off a fragrant smell, which intoxicaled (使人陶醉) me. the moon's shining face showed up new and then, in and out of the tree leaves as if she was playing a game of hide-and-seek with me. then as i game and stood in the shadow of the tree, i looked up and lost sight of the gently smiling face. a touch of sadness came over me. i at once moved away from the shadow, left it behind and there still serene and silvery i saw the moon.

the wind passed by and the trees waved their leafy arms. the fish in the pond shook their backs and flashed their dragon scales. what a cool and calm night.

from the distance came soft music. the miraculous melody instantly drew me. i walked towards it and found some people singing. i wanted to join them, but it occurred to me that i had something more important to do, the lectures to be given the next day. i hastened back. before entering my house, i turned and looked back at the moon, still high up in the sky, away from the few countable stars, shining magnificently in the thin sky. one cannot but admire her brightness. yes, if the world is the sky, then everyone is a star. everyone wants to shine. the moon has no light of her own. yet it is so bright at night. she reflects the rays from the sun, the source of light and heat, the symbol of truth and knowledge. since we know why the moon shines so magnificently and discovered the source of her brightness, why not follow suit and try to retch up with the sun?

校園月夜

10月的一個寧靜的夜晚,看了兩小時書後,我合上書,走出去到校園散步。月亮高掛,明亮而美麗。4幢灰色宿舍樓在銀光下整齊地排列著。月亮在薄雲中穿行,瑰麗明亮。她總是伴著我。月明星稀,遠離月亮的廖廖無幾的星星在閃閃發光。

我望著月亮喃喃自語:月亮,朋友,多少人把你歌唱,多少人為你寫作。你目睹了人間的善惡,可總是守口如瓶,面帶微笑地安慰著人們痛苦的心。似乎你的美德和力量就在於忍受和善良。

走著走著,我來到了學生宿舍。昏暗的光在麵條攤上忽閃著。小販子在忙自己的生意。窗戶里瀉出燈光,裡面一些學生在打牌。麵條攤上的昏暗的光和宿舍里的燈光好像在減弱月光的明亮。我有點噁心。

再往前走,看見了圖書館和教學大樓燈火通明,如同白晝。學生在那兒苦讀,絞盡腦汁地解決科學難題。心中油然生出一種敬意。不由得從中呼喚:“月亮,這才是可以與你同輝的人。自從電燈被發明以來,月光有些被冷落了。然而,在海洋、沙漠中行旅的人怎能把你忘記?你照亮了那些需要你的人。” www•

我來到了校花園,桂花吐香,使人陶醉。月亮的臉時隱時現,好像在樹葉中和我捉迷藏。我站在樹蔭下,因抬頭見不到月亮溫柔的笑臉而感到一絲憂傷。立刻走出陰影,甩開它,我又見到了銀白、寧靜的月亮。

陣風吹過,晃動著樹木的樹幹枝葉。魚在塘里游晃,魚鱗似龍背般閃爍。多么涼爽、安寧的夜晚!

遠處傳來柔和的樂曲聲。奇妙的樂調立刻吸引了我。我走上前去,發現一些人在唱歌。我想和他們一起唱,可突然想起還有更重要的事一—明天的課。我趕快回頭。走進家門之前,回頭再看看月亮,依然是高掛天空,遠處可數的幾顆星星在薄雲中大放異彩。人們不禁也讚美星星的明亮。是的,如果世界是天空,每一個人便是一顆星。每一個人都要閃亮。月亮本身並沒有光,夜晚明亮的月光是反射的大陽光。而太陽才是光和熱的源泉,是真理和知識的象徵。既然我們了解月亮之所以能如此輝煌,並發現了她的光源所在,為什麼我們不仿效月亮去追趕太陽呢?
