【推荐2】A Farewell Song

No dust is raised on the road wet with morning rain; The willows by the hotel look so fresh and green. I invite you to drink a cup of wine again; West of the sunny pass no more friends will be_______ .

                                                                                        (Translated by Xu Yuanchong)

Time flies and you will soon graduate from junior school. It might be a little sad to say goodbye to your teachers and classmates. This same feeling was shared more than 1,000 years ago, when the Tang Dynasty poet Wang Wei (701-761) had to say goodbye to his friend Yuan Er.

The poem begins with a beautiful morning scene. After the rain, the road is clean and free of dust, and the willows by the hotel are fresh and green. On this morning, Yuan Er is leaving for a faraway place called Anxi in today’s Xinjiang.

The last two lines are the most well-known. The poet invites Yuan to drink wine because he knows that life in Anxi will be tough. Most cities in China were prosperous (繁华的) during the Tang Dynasty (618-907), but the western areas were quite desolate (荒凉的). Wang thought the journey to the west would be full of hardship. So when Wang says “I invited you to drink a cup of wine again,” he is pouring both his care and good wishes into the cup. This sincere love for his friend made this poem popular back then and it remains today.

Recently, Chongqing Three Gorges University has held an activity named “Cell Phone Ninja”(手机忍者). They would like their students not to use cell phones for 21 days. It is really a challenge for most students. The activity started on April 12. Each student who volunteered to take part in this activity got a bracelet(手环). If the students did not use their cell phones, there would be a photo on the screen of the bracelet to show that. If they used their cell phones, a different photo would appear on the screen of the bracelet. After the last class of each day, the students sent the photos to the school’s public We Chat. More than 800 students wished to take part in this test, and 400 were chosen. After seven days, only 103 students remained. The test was set for 21 days because some scientists believe that 21 days is long enough to help form a habit. According to the teachers in the university, the activity was not a contest. It depended on students themselves to make the decision. The teacher hoped their students could form better study habits through activities like this one.
