Not that this week is flowerless. But the flowers are a little lonely things, here and there: the early purple orchid, ruddy and very much alive, you come across occasionally, then the little groups of bee- orchids, with their ragged concerted indifference to their appearance. Also there are the huge bud-spikes of the stout, thick-flowering pink orchid, huge buds like fat ears of wheat, hard-purple, and splendid. But already odd grains of the wheat-ear are open, and out of the purple hangs the delicate pink rag of floweret. Also there are very lovely and choice cream-coloured orchids with brown spots on the long and delicate lip. These grow in the more moist places, and have exotic tender spikes, very rare-seeming. Another orchid is a little pretty yellow one

樱桃树和它差不多，但更结实。现在是四月的最后一周，樱花仍然是白色的，但已经在凋谢消逝：今年开得晚，叶子密密层层，带着暗红血色的柔和铜光。在这个地区的果树情况很奇怪。梨树和桃树原本是一起开花的。但现在，梨树是一片可爱的厚厚的新绿，光亮的叶子中充满了柔嫩的苹果绿，在整个景观的其他绿色中闪闪发光：半高的麦田是翠绿的，灰色的橄榄树半隐半现，深色的柏树是微微发褐的绿色，常青的橡树是黑色的，石松的浓重绿色簇团在起伏，小桃树和杏树的绿是轻盈的，马栗树年轻结实的绿则很稳重。如此多的绿色，都以片状、层叠、倾斜的桌状、圆肩、羽状、乱丛和高起的灌木呈现，绿色里的绿色，有时在光亮下刺眼地闪耀着。

“In the morning, the sun shines strong on the horizontal green...” 全部笔记（1） 去书内
In the morning, the sun shines strong on the horizontal green cloud-puffs of the pines, the sky is clear and full of life, the water runs hastily, still browned by the last juice of crushed olives. And there the earth’s bowl of crocuses is amazing. You cannot believe that the flowers are really still. They are open with such delight, and their pistil is so red- orange, and they are so many, all reaching out wide and marvelous, that it suggests a perfect ecstasy of radiant, thronging movement, lit-up violet and orange, and surging in some invisible rhythm of concerted, delightful moverment. You cannot believe they do not move, and make some sort of crystalline sound of delight. If you sit still and watch, you begin to move with them, like moving with the stars, and you feel the sound of their radiance. All the little cells of the flowers must be leaping with flowery life and utterance

The big old monster greedily accepted my dime, and I heard the bottles shift. On tiptoes I reached up and opened the heavy door. There they were: one neat row of thick green bottles, necks staring directly at me, and ice-cold from the refrigeration. I held the door open with my shoulder and grabbed one. With a quick yank, I pulled it free from its bondage. Another one immediately took its place. The bottle was cold in my sweaty hands. I will never forget the feeling of the cool glass on my skin. With two hands, I positioned the bottleneck under the heavy brass opener that was bolted to the wall. The cap dropped into an old wooden box, and I reached in to retrieve it. It was cold and bent in the middle, but I knew I needed to have this souvenir. Coke in hand, I proudly marched back out into the early evening dusk. Grandpa was waiting patiently. He smiled

Cherry-scented smoke from Grandpa’s pipe kept the hungry mosquitoes at bay while gray, wispy swirls danced around our heads. Now and again, he blew a smoke ring and laughed as I tried to target the hole with my finger. I, clad in a cool summer nightie, and Grandpa, in his sleeveless T-shirt, sat watching the traffic. We counted cars and tried to guess the color of the next one to turn the corner

I know now that the man who sat with me on the old wooden stairs that hot summer night over thirty- five years ago was not a tall man. But to a five-year- old, he was a giant. We sat side by side, watching the sun go down behind the old Texaco service station across the busy street. A street that I was never allowed to cross unless accompanied by an adult, or at the very least, an older sibling

The lecturer was happy to see them, and conversation soon turned into complaints about stress in work and life. The lecturer just smiled and went to the kitchen to get an assortment of cups, some in porcelain, some in plastic, some in glass, some plain looking and some looked rather expensive and exquisite. The lecturer offered his former students the cups to get drinks for themselves

“There is no month in the whole year in which nature wears a...” 全部笔记（1） 去书内
在整整一年中，没有哪个月份比八月更能展现大自然的美丽。春天有许多美景，五月是一个清新而充满生机的月份，但这个季节的魅力正是通过与冬季的对比而增强的。八月却没有这样的优势。它来临时，我们脑中只记得晴朗的天空、绿色的田野和芬芳的花朵——对雪、冰和冷风的回忆，早已像它们从地球上消失一样，从我们的脑海中彻底淡去——然而那又是多么令人愉快的时光啊！果园和玉米地充满了劳动的嗡嗡声；树木在沉甸甸的果实重压下弯下枝条；玉米或堆成优美的禾捆，或在轻轻掠过的微风中摇曳，好像在召唤镰刀，为景色披上金色的光辉。整个大地仿佛笼罩着一种温润的柔和；季节的影响似乎延伸到了每一辆马车上，
