    The Daffodils

    by Willian Wordsworth
    I wondered lonely as a cloud
    That floats on high o'er vales and hills,
    When all at once I saw a crowd
    A host, of golden daffodils;
    Beside the lake, beneath the trees.
    Fulltering and dancing in the breeze.
     
    Continuous as the stars that shine
    And twinkle on the milky way,
    They stretched in never-ending line
    ALong the margin of a bay:
    The tousand saw I at a glance
    Tossing their heads in sprightly dance.
     
    The waves beside them dances, but they
    Out-did the sparkling waves in glee;
    A poet could not but be gay,
    IN such a jocund company!
    I gazed-and gazed-but little thought
    What wealth the show to me bad brought:
     
    For oft, when on my couch I lie
    In vacant or in pensive mood,
    They flash upon that inward eye
    Which is the bliss of solitude;
    And then my heart with pleasure fills,
    And dances with daffodils.

    Satiation

        Overindulgence in anything brings about satiation.
        It's true that too much oyster will make people feel sick, although it's indeed tasting and tempting.
        Yet, is this true to anything else, such as "studying"?
        People are taught that for those who like what they do ,the working hours are never long enough:each day is a holiday, and ordinary hilidays when they come are grudged as enforced interruptions in an absorbing vocation.
        So, will the knowlesge-pursuring be exempt from the satiation?

    God is alone, but the devil

        Do u believe that the solitude will be infectious as possible as the flu?
        Yes or no, it has proved true in the experience of myself!
        First of all, I have to say something in my own defense: Althoug admittedly I've sometimes gone emotional for the unsatisfactory proceeding of study plan, however, I'm sure I 've never been in any inclination to be reduced to the terrible solitude( Maybe it will irritate Thoreau who found it wholesome to be alone the greater part of the time)!Yet , in the several past days, the terrible devil indeed didn't share any room inside but immensely outside ranging from what I read to what I encountered.
        "The bigger the city is , the more loneliness the man will suffer!" When I first meet this words in the writing task of the Graduate Entrance Exzamination of SISU, the then reaction of mine was to muster up all my power to conceive a painful and dismal pricture of lonliness as possible as I can. Even if the loneliness was no strange to every humanbeings, yet just as the unmeasurable ocean, people above the water will have a vast different sense with those under it! Personally, I didn't come to apprehend it in a further way until recently I read such a solitary but still strong girl whose solitude was illustrated by one of her meticulous friend:Come to a metropolis lonely, study and work hard lonely, and face everyday's sun lonely! The Goddam loneliness!
          Autume, maybe a lonesome season as it is, performs well in intriguing the sentimental elements in people's mind. Then, the oneline diaries beome abundant with the alike topic---Solitude, with the company of some lonesome poems and songs. What a gathering party of solitude it is in such a solitary autume!
          Each cloud has a silver lining! It's human instinct to try best to survive from any adversities. Therefore, when there is solitude, there is the solution, even though this time it seems a little more foolish to some degree. It has been well known that man has a sound performance in self-cheating, which has given a big help to the slave of the solitude who 've beautifed the erstwhile disgusting and chilling solitariness to a precious and meaningful experience, or even the life-style! Whatever right or not, the truest thing is that one should keep on climing up ,or he wiould fall to die.If the self-cheating will help, why not?
           "God is alone, but the devil!"said Thoreau.
           Surly, we are the son and daughter of the God!

    Ode on Solitude

    ALEXANDER POPE       

    Happy the man whose wish and care
        A few paternal acres bound,
    Content to breathe his native air,
                    In his own ground.
    Whose herds with milk, whose fields with bread,
        Whose flocks supply him with attire,
    Whose trees in summer yield him shade,
                    In winter fire.
    Blest, who can unconcernedly find
        Hours, days, and years slide soft away,
    In health of body, peace of mind,
                    Quiet by day,
    Sound sleep by night; study and ease,
        Together mixed; sweet recreation;
    And innocence, which most does please
                    With meditation.
    Thus let me live, unseen, unknown;
        Thus unlamented let me die;
    Steal from the world, and not a stone
                    Tell where I lie.

    The invisible wings

    每一次                            Every time
    都在徘徊孤单中坚强          I always become stronger in the wandering and solitude
    每一次                            Every time                        
    就算很受伤                      When I've got wounded
    也不闪泪光                      No tears will be in my eyes
    我知道                            For I know
    我一直有双隐形的翅膀       the invisible wings of my own 
    带我飞                            will always help me fly
    飞过绝望                         over the despair
    不去想                            Not caring at all
    他们拥有美丽的太阳          how beautiful the sun they've owned
    我看见                            I found
    每天的夕阳                      the glow of the setting sun
    也会有变化                      will be different everyday
    我知道                            I'm aware
    我一直有双隐形的翅膀       the invisible wings of my own
    带我飞                            will help me fly high high up
    给我希望                         bringing me endless hope
    我终于                            Finally I've                            
    看到                               got the sight of             
    所有梦想都开花                the blossoming of  my dreams    
    追逐的年轻                      and found the sings of running for the young         
    歌声多嘹亮                      sound so loud and clear
    我终于                            Finally I could
    翱翔                               fly freely in the sky
    用心凝望不害怕                with no fear
    哪里会有风                      Let me fly far far away by
    就飞多远吧                      harnessing the air to my purpose
    隐形的翅膀                      My invisible wings have
    让梦恒久比天长                made the eternity of my dream
    留一个                            lefting a
    愿望                               wish
    让自己想象                      waiting for my free imagination

    Afternoon on a Hill (by Enda Millay)

    I will be the galddest thing
    Under the sun!
    I will touch a hundrend flowers
    And not pick one.
     
    I will look at cliffs and clouds
    With quiet eyes,
    Watch the wind bow down the grass,
    And the grass rise.
     
    And when the lights begin to show
    Up from the town,
    I will maek which must be mine,
    And then start down!
