- My Views On the Uncouth Rich People nowadays tend to call the newly rich ' Tuhao ', which means that though they might be materially rich, they are indeed spiritually poor. The term is so widely-used that the majority of people use it as a sarcasm. Sometimes people are even under the illusion that the all of the wealthy have bad tastes and lack sophistication. Meanwhile others agog want to make friends with them for their own sake. There's a spectrum of opinions on the phenomenon. On the one hand, people mock them not because how terrible their tastes are but because they begrudged being subordinate to them. People are prone to look down upon them partially owing to their jealousy and dissatisfaction. Yet, not everyone is hostile to them. On the other hand, the springing up of the 'rich' triggers people's anxiety. Undoubtedly having the right connections with the rich seems to be a shortcut to success. Although not glorious and solid, it is better than struggling at the lowest end of society. However, It's hilarious to see people in such a contradiction, treating them with scorn while being eager to get along well with them. From where I am standing, I think we should view it in a more rational way. With the development of the economy, increasing number of people has found the business opportunities which they have been always looked for and has made their first pots of gold. What they are possessing has a bearing on what they've contributed. However, the phenomenon also reveals to us that the widening gap between the rich and poor in China, which gives rise to the people's dissatisfaction to the richer ones. Wealth alone does not help the society to real affluence. Although the rich may help soar the GDP, the government should figure out effective means to fill the widening income gap. In regard to us, what matters most us is to spare no effort to do everything except be a backseat driver and be disdainful of them. We should be a man who is wealthy both spiritually and materially in the foreseeable future.November 13, 201340
细细人~ The Slender Man
传说有个生物,用英语叫Slender Man。。。
这个骨瘦如材的人穿个黑色西服,身体很细的很瘦的,也很高的。在他的脸上没有眼睛,没鼻子,没口;应该有脸的地方都是白色的(这句话虽然没有错误但是我读起来觉得很奇怪..)。这个生物是诡异的,虽然看起来像人,但是他不是!如果有人看到了,那这个人的身上就会有悲剧发生。比如,小孩子失踪之前告诉父母看到很瘦(形容人一般用瘦不用细)很高的没脸的人出来。大人总是回答:“你想多了,别担心这么多。这是你的幻想了。”然后小孩子就失踪了。
没有人知道骨瘦如材的人来自哪里。有时人们会在树林里看到这个人 。一见到细细人就逃走(我觉得改成"当你见到细细人就赶快逃走吧!"会更好),如果跟着细细人看(??这句我没看懂),人会慢慢变得疯狂然后无法治疗。
如果遇到的话,马上走开;可能就太晚了!(??我没看懂)0 votedJanuary 27, 20130练习和翻译
