A Time You Were Scared 😱: Narrative tenses 1

📻 La Frecuencia Perdida 🎙️🔊

Samuel era un apasionado de las radios antiguas. Un día, encontró una en una tienda de antigüedades, con la perilla gastada y el dial marcado en una frecuencia desconocida: 77.7 FM. Intrigado, la compró y la llevó a casa. Cuando la encendió, solo escuchó estática… hasta que, de repente, una voz profunda susurró: "Si puedes oír esto, significa que estás en peligro". Samuel sintió un escalofrío, pero pensó que era una interferencia. Sin embargo, la voz continuó: "No mires detrás de ti".

El miedo lo paralizó. No quería girarse, pero su curiosidad fue más fuerte. Lentamente, miró por encima del hombro… y no vio nada. Se rio de sí mismo por asustarse tan fácilmente, pero al volver la vista a la radio, la voz susurró: "Te advertí. Ahora es demasiado tarde". En ese instante, la luz de la habitación parpadeó y el reflejo en la ventana le mostró una silueta detrás de él. Samuel giró rápidamente, pero no había nadie. La radio empezó a emitir un sonido agudo y, de pronto, la señal se cortó.

Desde esa noche, Samuel no volvió a encender la radio. Pero cada madrugada a las 3:33 AM, sin que nadie la tocara, el dial giraba solo hasta 77.7 FM. Nadie hablaba. Solo se escuchaba su propio nombre… y una respiración cada vez más cerca.

You’re not going to get anywhere if you keep complaining about the same problem but do nothing to fix it. Don’t waste your time complaining, expecting other people to continue to react to your complaints. Instead, take action to make a change.

ALL ABOUT TURKıSH

TURKISH ALPHABET

说到这里，他就长时间地陷入沉思之中。
And he sank into a reverie, which lasted a long time.
然后，从口袋里掏出了我画的小羊，看着他的宝贝入了神。
Then, taking my sheep out of his pocket, he buried himself in the contemplation of his treasure.
你们可以想见这种关于“别的星球”的若明若暗的话语使我心里多么好奇。
You can imagine how my curiosity was aroused by this half-confidence about the "other planets."
因此我竭力地想知道其中更多的奥秘。
I made a great effort, therefore, to find out more on this subject.
你是从哪里来的，我的小家伙？
My little man, where do you come from?
你的家在什么地方？
What is this ‘where I live, of which you speak?
你要把我的小羊带到哪里去？
Where do you want to take your sheep?
他沉思了一会，然后回答我说：
After a re?ective silence he answered:
好在有你给我的那只箱子，夜晚可以给小羊当房子用。
The thing that is so good about the box you have given me is that at night he can use it as his house.
那当然。
That is so.
如果你听话的话，我再给你画一根绳子，

And if you are good I will give you a string, too,
白天可以栓住它。再加上一根杆子。我的建议看来有点使小王子反感。
so that you can tie him during the day, and a post to tie him to.
但是小王子对我喊到：“栓住它，多么奇怪的主意。”
But the little prince seemed shocked by this offer: "Tie him! What a queer idea!"
“如果你不栓住它，它就到处跑，那么它会跑丢的，”我说。
"But if you don’t tie him," I said, "he will wander off somewhere, and get lost."
我的这位朋友又笑出了声：“你想要它跑到哪里去呀？”
My friend broke into another peal of laughter: "But where do you think he would go?"
不管什么地方。它一直往前跑。
Anywhere. Straight ahead of him.
这时，小王子郑重其事地说：“这没有什么关系，我那里很小很小。
Then the little prince said, earnestly: "That doesn’t matter. Where I live, everything is so small!"
接着，他略带伤感地又补充了一句：“一直朝前走，也不会走出多远”
And, with perhaps a hint of sadness, he added: "Straight ahead of him, nobody can go very far..."

小王子第七章：它跑到哪里去

        上星期，白雪在网上看到了一套漂亮的公寓，有一房一厅，还有一个厨房、洗手间和一个大阳台。价格也不贵，她能接受。

        从照片上看，卧室和客厅看起来又大又干净，客厅有沙发、电视，卧室的床也看起来很舒服。

        阳台的外面可以看到一个小公园，如果住在这里，还可以每天去公园散散步。

       最重要的是，这个公寓离地铁很近，走路5分钟就到了，她只要坐一个地铁站就可以到公司，或者，她可以走路半个小时到公司。

        她高兴极了，约我周末的时候一起去看看这套公寓。

Last week, Báixuě saw a beautiful apartment online, with one room and one living room, a kitchen, a bathroom and a large balcony. The price is not expensive, she can accept it. The bedroom and living room look big and clean in images. The living room has a sofa and TV. The bed in the bedroom also looks very comfy. You can see a small park not far outside the balcony. You can go to the park for a walk every day if living here.
The most important thing is that this apartment is very close to the subway, and it is only 5 minutes' walk away. Only one subway station to the company, or, she can walk half an hour to the company. She was so happy that she asked for my company to visit this apartment in person at the weekend.
