1 My travel journal

我的旅行日志 ☆

I like the saying that the world is a book and those who do not travel read only one page.

I am fond of keeping journals in my journeys. Now, I am sitting reading the journal of last spring when I was a new graduate and was scheduled to climb one unknown mountain. I prefer to do explorations rather than just enjoy views. Ever since my childhood, I have cycled to many places by organizing a small team. Though I have many shortcomings, generally I am reliable. My attitude towards travelling is that never give in once I have determined on it.

Before setting out, I bought myself an insurance. I had designed the route in detail and taken down the forecast. My mother was quite stubborn that I should stay home. I knew she cared about my safety, but I managed to persuade her to change her mind finally.

Packing the parcels, a wool coat, a pillow and a kettle to boil food like potatoes, I set out as usual with some necessary fare.

Upon reaching the destination, I found a valley beneath the mountain at an altitude of 3,000 metres. Out of it flew a river. It was a good idea to find out its source. I paced along the bank and suddenly a cave came into sight. I bent forward to enter it. It was too dark, so I lit the candle. The flame is bright enough to allow me to see that it was a temple. At midnight, I made up my mind to go out.

Now, I still cannot help thinking how the statues inside were transported there since the narrow entrance was the biggest disadvantage. Maybe it deserves another visit.

“世界是一本书，那些从未旅行过的人仅仅读了这本书的某一页。”我很喜欢这种说法。

在旅行中，我喜欢写日志。现在，我坐在那儿阅读着去年春天我记下的日...

在出发之前，我给自己买了一份保险，我还制订了详细的旅行线路并记下了天气预报。我妈妈固执地认为我应该待在家里，我知道她是担心我的安全。但我最终还是说服她，让她改变了想法。

我将一件羊毛外套、一个枕头和一个能用来煮土豆等食物的小汽锅打包装入行囊，带上必需的钱，我便和往常一样出发了。

到达目的地时，我发现在海拔3000米的山脚下有一个峡谷，一条河流潺潺流出。探寻这条河的源头想想是个不错的主意，于是我便沿着河岸溯流而上。突然，一个山洞出现在我眼前。我弯腰走进了山洞，里面黑魆魆的。我点上一根蜡烛。烛光很亮，我能看到里面是一座庙宇。时至午夜，我决定走出山洞。

现在，我仍然会不由自主地想到山洞里的塑像是怎么运进去的，因为山洞的洞口是如此狭窄。可能下回我还应该再去那里看看。

3 An adventure

一次奇遇 ☆

I came across the phrase, spirit of adventure, which was said by an unknown author in a passage of a magazine. I couldn't help telling you my story.

Tom, a businessman who was always finding fault with anyone but me, and I went to Florida on business. Florida was Tom's birthplace, but he was brought up in the North. As for me, I was a stranger in the city. However, no sooner had we arrived than we got into trouble. First, I was surprised at what greeted us: abundant food on the shelves of many shops, such as dessert, pineapple and steak; genuine paintings on the wall, including one which people lay on the bay; barbers who bowed to us politely. Suddenly I noticed a lady was strange beside me. Then I had my wallet stolen in the crowd, in which was an envelope with my passport as well as a large amount of money. It accounted for my worry. After we consulted the Chinese embassy, we went to the police station to seek help. The policeman promised to help us. We could do nothing but wait. Then the trip went ahead as planned. Things changed before I began to lose my patience.

At nightfall, we had just stepped out of a restaurant when we heard a scream ahead. We looked around and saw two waiters pushing a woman in rags, not permitting her to step in. The woman fell down on the pavement. It was unbelievable that they treated her in such a rude manner. Seeing the scene, I stopped. On the contrary, Tom stepped up and stared at the woman, which raised doubts in my mind. It occurred to me that the woman was wandering around us before the wallet was stolen. The woman looked at us and was so nervous that she took a chance to escape, but in vain. Soon, the police came and found that the woman did steal my wallet. We spotted the thief by accident. It was not a novel, but our adventure.

我偶然在一本杂志里看到一篇文章，这位不知名的作者提到一个词——冒险精神，使我禁不住想给你讲一个我亲身经历的故事。

有一次，我和汤姆去佛罗里达出差。他是一个爱找岔子的商人，虽然他从未找过我的麻烦。佛罗里达是汤姆的出生地，不过他在北方长大。而对我来说，佛罗里达则是个陌生的地方。我们一到那里就陷入麻烦之中。首先，我一到那儿，眼前的景象就让我惊诧不已——许多商店货架上放满了甜点、菠萝和牛排一类的丰富食物；墙上的挂满绘画真迹，其中包括一幅人们躺在港湾中的画作；理发师礼貌地向我们鞠躬行礼。我突然发现站在我旁边的一个女人有些奇怪。后来在拥挤的人群中，我的钱包被偷了，那里面有一只信封，装着我的护照和一大笔钱。这让我十分担心。在向中国大使馆进行了咨询之后，我们又去了警察局寻求帮助。警察承诺会帮助我们。而后，我们所能做的只有等待了。这之后，我们的旅行照计划进行。就在我即将失去耐心之前，事情有了转机。

黄昏时分，我们刚走出餐厅就听到前方一声尖叫。环顾四周，我们看到两个侍者正在推搡一个衣衫褴褛的女人，不许她进入这家餐厅。那个妇人摔倒在人行道上。侍者对待她如此粗鲁的行为令人难以置信。看到此景，我停下了脚步。但是，汤姆却走上前，盯着那女人看，这使我十分疑惑。我突然想起来就在我的钱包被偷之前，就是她曾在我们身边徘徊。那女人看到我们，显出紧张的神色，找机会要逃跑，但没有成功。很快，警察赶到了，并且查出她的确偷了我的钱包。小偷居然被我们无意间撞见了。这不是一篇小说，而是我们的真实奇遇。

4 My album and my memories

我的相册、我的记忆 ☆

I opened the album. Memories flashed back like waves on the sea.

Several years ago, as a candidate, I was appointed as the assistant of a volcanologist and sent to work in a remote town surrounded by mountains. The height of the mountains varied from 2,000 metres above sea level to 3,000 metres. It was an absolutely fantastic sight. But a volcano alongside the mountains aroused the local people's anxiety. My task was to collect and evaluate the information of the volcano with scientific equipment for a database. I valued the precious chance.

Below the volcano lay a fountain which aroused the greatest appreciation, especially after thunderstorm, when a rainbow would turn up above the fountain. Many novelists drew inspiration from it. Diverse species of plants are an absolute guarantee of health and life.

In actual fact, life proved hard. The hurricane was frequent, blowing the ash in the air. A small accident would lead to everything being burnt to the ground.

My another task is to educate the local people to deal with potential eruption of the volcano. I often let them look at the diagram showing a volcano erupting. After that, I would hand out questionnaires to them to know their feelings.

One day I, together with several young people, wore white protective suits, a helmet and boots and made my way to the mountain top.

Gradually, some of us trembled with cold sweat running down their back. I also felt very uncomfortable. I feared that I would become unconscious. Seeing their anxious expression, I knew they were in a fog. I told them not to panic.

Now, bathing in the warm sunshine beside a bungalow, I glanced through the album and the document again. I really miss that experience.

我打开相册，记忆如海上的波浪一般涌来。

几年前，作为候选人，我被指定为一名火山学家的助手，被派到一个遥远的、群山环绕的小镇工作。山的高度从海拔2000米到3000米不等。那里景色真的很壮观。但是群山旁边的一座火山令当地居民非常担忧。我的任务就是用一些科学设备去收集、评估这座火山的相关信息，并建立一个数据库。我很珍惜这个来之不易的机会。

在这座火山之下有一潭泉水，泉水十分美丽，尤其是在暴风雨之后，一道彩虹随即出现在泉水之上。许多小说家由此获得了写作灵感。种类繁多的植物是健康和生命的保障。

事实上，生命很难保障。飓风时常袭来，把灰烬带到空中。一个很小的意外就能把一切完全烧毁。

我的另一项任务是教当地居民如何应对可能发生的火山爆发。我经常让他们观察显示火山爆发的图表。在那之后，我会发放调查问卷去了解他们的感受。

一天我和其他几个年轻人去登山，我穿着白色的防护服，戴着头盔，穿着靴子。

渐渐地，我们中的一些人开始发抖，背后冷汗直流。我也觉得很不舒服，我害怕自己会失去知觉。看到他们焦虑的表情，我知道他们很困惑，告诉他们不要害怕。

现在，在小屋旁，沐浴在温暖阳光下，我又一次翻看这本相册和相关文件。我真的很怀念那段经历。
