写在X-Files结束之际

其实，X早在03年就结束了，那时，我还没开窍呢。记得第一次遇到Mulder 和 Scully是在初一的时候。那时他们还年轻，Mulder出生于1961年，好象是10月；Diana出生于1964年。（有许多说法啦，不过在有一集中Mulder以为Scully已经死了，墓碑上写的1964-1994） 哎，他们竟然和我爸妈一样大哦！不过剧中他们第一次相遇实在1993年，那时的X档案组只有Fox一个人，Diana作为一名医学博士兼法医本来是听从上级命令以科学劝说Fox停止对他妹妹小时被外星人绑架的案子的，没想到她自己也奋不顾身地投入到了X files的调查工作中去。由此展开了近10年的电视剧，我想应该有150集吧，到最后每集需要竟500万美元！

X-Files曾在1998年拍过一本电影叫“征服未来”，据说要在7月28或是29日在中央6套播放。影片中他们誓死维护真相，其实说实话，电视剧中出现的最多的一个词就是truth。不过，如果你从来没听说过这个，那我劝你就不要看了，因为这本电影内容有一点连带关系，你会不知道它在说什么。结尾还是美剧的老一套，顾弄玄虚，Cigarette Smoking Man接过一封信件后把它扔到了地上，上面写着“The X-Files is reopened”

这本电视剧大获成功，主角David Duchovny以及Gillian Anderson都获金球奖，要不是这是电视剧，他们肯定能获Oscar。

用3年的时间把10年的东西看完，我觉得已经蛮有历史感的了，不知道美国人自己是怎么想的。

Hold on me

Wind went over a hill, a river, a forest and finally a village.

Her owner bought the wind chimes last month. She was doomed to be played tricks on.

The wind, as a traveler, once met them by God, he suddenly felt her charm. And he couldn’t help kissing her!

Chimes were really shy; they had no idea if she can accept him.

But one thing made her decide it. A dark day came and it rained, very very heavily. She could feel that she was extremely cold and helpless.

Water on her, and it wasn’t found until the wind came.

“Is that your tear?” Wind said.

“No, it’s rain.” Chimes answered. How she wanted to admit that it is her tear!

“It seems that you are very cold and weak.”

“Please hold on me.” Chimes said softly.

Then a warm scene appeared. Chimes couldn’t say it but she still said “I love you.”

Wind had to hide his feeling and he had to hide his tears too.

Their love seemed to move the sky.

And the day became wonderful.

One day, the wind came to her and told her that he had to leave for another place.

“Why?! I love you so much and you can’t leave without me alone!”

“Eh, I really have to go. I know it’s a big hurt to you.”

“But, what happens? What’s wrong?”

“Look, I also love you but you know, a new vacuum cleaner is coming.”

今天太郁闷了，郁闷到了极点，不过很回味难得写一回中文博客。对了，中文逗号后面阿要再空格呢？

Hua and her John

A little girl who once lived a common family in Henan wanted to go to a university for further education. Her family surly supported her great dream because they made it. The girl named Hua. She was a high school student which was in the most famous school in Henan. Her family was teachers. They had taught counted students and they wanted every miracle happened to her. But sometimes reality couldn’t be changed as one likes.

“Thank you mum, but I can’t have breakfast for it’s late for school.”

“The school does not allow you to eat there?”

“Certainly.”

When the girl came to school, it was just 6 o’clock and even though all of the students in her class had come for the “morning revision”. It was a process which couldn’t be understood. They read the articles and words very loudly so that they could feel they had reviewed the schoolwork well. But actually, they had been in a “revision condition” for almost 10 hours. It was incredible. Their sleeps were just for 5 hours. They even read out words and thought math problems in their dreams! How poor they were! Their parents thought that good grades were everything. They even didn’t believe in God but good grades and high points.

“Hua, have you finished your homework? It’s time for bed. You have to go on lessons tomorrow and the day after it.” (That day was Friday.)

“Not yet. I still have homework for Math, Physics and Biology. Maybe I still need another 2 hours.” (It was 21 o’clock at that time.)

I don’t have much to say.

It was a sunny day and Hua had to ride her old bike to a place 5 km away from her home. Her mother asked her to go on a math lesson for she is weak in it and sure, Hua accepted it because she believed that once she got full marks in math then she could get rid of such damn lessons. But you know, full marks mean A^{+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++}, it was quite difficult for not only her but every single student. She could hardly make it come true. But she thought everything can be done and her mother was her energy. “Energy?” I keep asking myself.

Her class had a foreign teacher called John. He noticed the girl and he thought she could be very famous and successful in the future because she was the most diligent. I promised he never noticed her mother and I am serious.

At an English lesson, John asked Hua to answer a question. “What is your dream at present?” “I hope I can get a full mark for the next math exam.” “So, is there anything else such as getting a nice present?” “No, I determined to do that.” John seemed to be shocked. He seemed to know something. After class, he talked to her deeply. “Why you always wanted to get good grades?” “Because my mother and I wanted that! It was the only chance that I can get rid of the extra lessons!” “What is extra lesson? I don’t understand.” “You’d better not understand that, for you are a foreigner. But I think you are a good person. You are comfortable to be around.” John wanted to investigate.

His conclusion nearly knocked him down. He couldn’t believe his eyes when he saw nearly 70 students sitting in a small classroom to be “educated” for knowledge. He wanted to talk to Hua’s mother and convince her. However, it was doomed to be failed because she said “Foreigners know nothing about here or my daughter, you are just a English teacher!”

Unfortunately, that day’s math exam defeated Hua completely, she couldn’t believe that she was still weak in it and she only got 67 points. (/100 points) She was totally disappointed and she even got a fall on her way home. When she got home, she started to write a message on a paper. “Mum, I have made you disappointed again and I was a useless one in the world. What have I done for nearly 16 hours every day? What have I got during these 3 years? I hate math from my heart! Why do you always drive me? I’m nearly crazy! I hope I won’t go on such lessons any more.”

John, at last, found her home’s location. He could predict something because it was too easy for him to understand a weak girl. When he got there, she had been dead. Obviously, she drank the poisons. Soon, her family members and her parents came horridly. Her mother cried to almost died, and her father just stood there, without any movements.

“What’s this foreigner doing here?”

“Is he the murderer?”

“I see him talking to your daughter, he may tell her something evil.”

But John said nothing, just came to her body, say softly “You are a good person. You are comfortable to be around.”

Let’s go, for the moon and Mars!

By the time has passed to the 21^st century, it seems that it will be another good chance for the colonists to show their skills. The moon and Mars have been discovered and we humankind have gotten to the moon and it was the most exciting thing we had ever done! I can predict that this century will be the century of space and immigrations for outer space. It’s a wonderful time for us to build colonies and we can use the resources there without having to get the permissions from the local government! But we have to study if it’s safe for us to get and use resources from other planets. Or maybe our rude and sudden actions will break the balance and the rules of Galaxy.

Have you noticed that I have mentioned “the rules”? Yes, it’s important for us and especially for our early settlers. They now have to wear special heavy and stupid tanks and boots and something else. But if we continue to go to other planets like this, we can’t build any colony for it’s still even a big problem for us to walk on its surface freely and without difficulty! How can we build establishments by jumping up and down? There is still much else for us to learn. Now let’s imagine, what will happen if we can go to Mars successfully and we have been able to do nearly everything freely? Ah, it will be incredible! First, we can build up an extraordinarily fantastic establishment as the first basement so that we can continue to make immigrations go there and do for the governors. Of course, the governors in Earth can decide if they can choose prisoners or common citizens as the first group of the colony. And the governors should also make sure not to follow the footsteps of British Empire in the 19^th century. They at that time didn’t create colonies but independent countries. (Except United States)

Although this idea seems extremely crazy and ridiculous now, I still consider it a very realistic plan for our technologies have been greatly improved and I think it will be soon developed new and far space shuttles. The most developed space shuttles are in the United States and belong to NASA. This official organization has successfully sent a great many astronauts and times of flight. I consider it will be its first turn to send the “space immigrations”. And I think the US government should now quickly draw out the laws on this area and even later their most important government and people will move to other planets because they are afraid of the attack and the unlimited waves of intelligence collections. But I wonder if US government will keep this secret and make their supremacy in outer space? It’s very dangerous for livings on earth.

It’s fun to have farmlands and domes of our own. Can you imagine that you are in another planet? It’s a great chance for our scientists to have the outer space experiments. I hear that there have been some companies which sell the lands on the moon but I think it will be pointless because who will care whose land it is when the first group of immigrations go to other planets?

The Rise of Sumer

The Sumerians were first living on the plain which belonged to the Euphrates and Tigris. It had the fertile land and enough water. The regular floods of these two rivers had given advanced conditions to these settlers. The Sumerians were the earliest people who built up the civilization society and the civilization city and country were started there too. In the agricultural era, the ancient people had developed agriculture, handicrafts and animal husbandry by using the natural gifts from the Euphrates and Tigris. In some way, they were very developed at that time. As they were slowly developing the southern areas, they started creating the civilization cities. And the glorious culture of Sumer.

The primitive democracy was appeared on this land and it was said we can find evidence from the ancient myths. The myths show that in the democratic era, the management governments were based on the democratic principles. Later times, the leader of the military started to resist the meeting of people and the meeting of the emirates. They slowly used their power to change the way of producing new leaders from election to hereditary. It made the basement of the hereditary monarchy and the aristocrats. By the time, after the power of the developing was greatly improved, rich men and poor men, slaveholders and slaves, aristocrats and citizens were all appeared. By these classes were appeared, the country was born. In 3000 BC, there were a few “city countries” which were captured by slavery. They were small and less developed; they had the small areas and populations. But the construction of monarchy started to change this situation. The handicrafts, business and the projects of water were greatly improved too. The goods and productions were sold to India and the Asia Minor. At the same time, two unions had been built up. One of them was the Southern Union and the other one was the Northern Union. They wanted to capture each other and make the unity.

At last, Leigaerza Muhamed was defeated by Kiss Wang Saergong. And the latter built up the first slavery country: The Giant Wang.

My cousin has married!

What a pleasant night I have spent! Because my cousin married with his girlfriend! It was a really night which can’t be forgotten.

DAY ZERO: It seemed that they hadn’t been ready for their coming wedding reception, but they were very excited. They wanted to celebrate it in a totally different way, so they wanted to describe their new house with DV. The facts had proved that its result was not obvious, but their happiness had been all appeared on the screen! By the way, they also had ever argued for some problems such as the details on vehicles and performance. They tried to create a new atmosphere and it succeeded. They knew that it was impossible and extremely tough for them to do everything well only by themselves, so they decided to use the power of their classmates. For classmates, they are very kind and honest to each other. And sometimes one of them may play a friendly trick on him, he will accept it happily. Their friendship is stable and forever. Four of them became four attendants of the bride. I can feel that they must be very tired and they were very happy to see that Student Bu became Mr. Bu and his bride is Mrs. Zhu. The bride, as the future wife, is very pretty. She will be doomed the most attractive and prettiest character.

DAY ONE: “Okay, looking at the coming couple, wish them happy together!” The attendant said. It was a climax. They seemed very proud that they can be so wonderful at the wedding reception. But for others, they are doomed being a pair of couple because they had been lovers for so long. The bride is a news reporter and my cousin is the son of a business family. Maybe their marriage was doomed and they will have happiness. The time came towards to the time it began; the wedding reception was set in the Sheraton Hotel. The hotel is big and luxurious. I specially took lots of photos of it. Simply, it looks like a garden in Suzhou’s style. But you can’t resist that it is the best hotel in Suzhou. At 6:00, the reception began. After a short speech, dad came on the stage! He was so nervous that he forgot what he had to say! As his nephew’s wedding, he was extremely moved and my cousin is the first in the “The third Generation Descendants”. Behind dad, there is a vast family and their interests. But it couldn’t be a wedding for the interests for they loved each other honestly and stably. When they returned home, they let off fireworks and beautiful patterns were appeared in the sky, very very majestic.

DAY TWO: They got up very early and they met lots of our relatives. The room was full of guests and my cousin’s grandmother, who is 86 years old, was very happy and glad to see that moment and she can also meet her elder brother who lived in Shanghai, a developed city in China. My uncle was also so busy that he even couldn’t give time for his favorite birds. But he thinks nothing will be more important than son’s wedding. Overall, my cousin’s wedding was very successful and hundreds of people came to give their best wishes to this young couple.

July 4th, yes, it is, forever

Today, the fourth of July, can be a great day in history and people around the world won’t forget it. When the Independence Day arrived, Americans will calm down or celebrate it in their streets. They are eager to have such a day in this violently hot summer. Sometimes the parade can’t be absent and they can show their imagination and ability of DIY on it. So, lots of colorful floats will show on the streets and many of them have been decorated with the banner and the colorful patterns. By the way, they are three-dimensional at the most conditions actually. It seems that people are not very crazy about how the floats being made or the pretty models on them, they just like to be eager to such atmosphere and they won’t mind if a float breaks down. “Just move it!” They will probably say.

To the history, this day is not as easy as it will be. Washington, Franklin and other important persons had “The Declaration of Independence” and 13 states have been united to fight against the United Kingdom. At this year, 1776, you know, the British wouldn’t admit its present and they know that they still had the chance to win. But the condition was very tough for them though they were armed with good weapons and their navy was the best in the world at that time. It seemed that they couldn’t get rid of the wars in Europe, the attack and the support to American from French. France and the Great Britain had been enemies for centuries and it seemed that it had been a climax in the 18^th century. Yes, the French had ever supported Americans, and I think if they could know that the baby country would one day grow up to a strong one that can control the whole Europe for nearly 40 years, they wouldn’t do such stupid actions and they might even form a union which were like Anti-America Union. But the fact is the fact, the God will sometimes be so lucky and gentleman to a new civilization or a country.

During the cold war, the Americans bear unimaginable fear and pressure of the threat from the Soviet Union and the Communist Camp. But their government was not afraid at all and they tried to threaten the enemies by showing developed weapons and their technologies of outer space. The American government also tried to improve their economic so that they wouldn’t be defeated by the cost of developing military just like the end of the Soviet Union.

No matter how cruel the cold war was, it has been away, been thrown away into the dustbin. Americans are now leading another style of living freely and easily. With the security of their lives and law, the citizens can have a large area to do what they want to and an American choose a job by their hobbies not by its salary or social status. They can also educate their children very well and tell them how to imagine and create new things. They can be very emotional sometime. Because they need feelings and love from others and it’s their successful tips to be the strongest and the best in the world for hundreds of years.

I’m looking forward to this beautiful country soon.

A President in our country

He became the President of this country, one month ago. However, he can’t be so happy or easy because so much important and serious work is waiting for him to solve and be given orders. He is always very tired when he goes back home. It doesn’t seem to be very pleasant or proud as he thought first and he is even a bit shameful to this job.

Yesterday, a terrorism accident happened, at the railway station, 147 people died and about a thousand victims need health care and medical treatments. The hospitals nearly lost their use because of too much patients and even some people stood outside the hospitals, waiting treatments. The scenes which were broadcast by the local TV station moved and shook him a lot. He suddenly understood the strong pressure and his trust on “presidents who complain to the public are irony and stupid” started to be questioned. He felt that there might be some reasons for these guys. And he knows that it is his turn now. Whether he could bear or be determined to take actions, his career of President will be hard and tough. But he doesn’t want to be a copy of any other one; he wants to make another totally new and effective government and an example of President. Whatever he has done, the society and public will remember him and be grateful to him. Led to the arrest of the terrorists, he didn’t feel a bit easy because he, the President will face far more frightening, misleading and sudden accidents as they once were.

It looks like the God don’t appreciate him. The financial turmoil suddenly arrived, and no one knew why it would happen. Maybe it was caused by some persons, like the crocodiles. Citizens were very angry and also, sympathetic to their government because they knew, it couldn’t be prevented by official way, in this capitalism country. To their surprise, the President decided to use the power of government. Their citizens gained the confidence again but they were still a little uneasy and they couldn’t be sure if this method will be effective for long. Now, the time and the facts have proved that it can be. Fortunately, foreign people still remained curious to this wonderful land and they want to invest here very much. We can believe that it can be grown much stronger and more powerful in the future.

He is now reading the State of the Union Address for this year in the capitol. The members of the Parliament are amazed to see that this youngest president in history will be so confident and strong. People who ever opposed him even clap their hands for times! That’s really a miracle, not only for he himself but for the whole government. He thinks that he will be slowly used to facing and dealing with any difficulties well and perfectly. He must do hid best to everyone because the country under his leading should have another strong and glorious period. And he surely wants to prove that he won’t fight against other countries but he will do against the evil power.

“Public are watching me every moment the turn for me to do decision. I will be Solomon, in Bible, just be as wise as him.” The young president said proudly.
