〈#56〉5月12日木曜日　長いもの植えつけ始まる

第五颗行星非常奇怪，
The fifth planet was very strange.
是这些星星中最小的一颗。
It was the smallest of all.
行星上刚好能容得下一盏路灯和一个点路灯的人。
There was just enough room on it for a street lamp and a lamplighter.
小王子怎么也解释不通,要一盏路灯和一个点灯的人做什么用,
The little prince was not able to reach any explanation of the use of a street lamp and a lamplighter,
这个坐落在天空某一角落，既没有房屋又没有居民的行星上。
somewhere in the heavens, on a planet which had no people, and not one house.
但他自己猜想，可能这个人思想不正常。
But he said to himself, nevertheless, It may well be that this man is absurd.
但他比起国王，比起那个爱虚荣的人，那个实业家和酒鬼，却要好些。
But he is not so absurd as the king,the conceited man, the businessman, and the tippler.
至少他的工作还有点意义。
For at least his work has some meaning.
当他点着了他的路灯时，就象他增添了一颗星星，或是一朵花。
When he lights his street lamp, it is as if he brought one more star to life, or one flower.
当他熄灭了路灯时，就象让星星或花朵睡着了似的。
When he puts out his lamp, he sends the flower, or the star, to sleep.
这差事真美妙，就是真正有用的了。

That is a beautiful occupation. And since it is beautiful, it is truly useful.
小王子一到了这个行星上，就很尊敬地向点路灯的人打招呼.
When he arrived on the planet he respectfully saluted the lamplighter.
早上好。你刚才为什么把路灯灭了呢？
Good morning. Why have you just put out your lamp?
“早上好。这是命令。”点灯的回答道。
"Those are the orders," replied the lamplighter. "Good morning."
命令是什么？
What are the orders?
就是熄掉我的路灯。晚上好。
The orders are that I put out my lamp. Good evening.
于是他又点燃了路灯。
And he lighted his lamp again.
那么为什么你又把它点着了呢？
But why have you just lighted it again?
“这是命令。”点灯的人回答道。
"Those are the orders," replied the lamp lighter.
“我不明白。”小王子说。
"I do not understand," said the little prince.
“没什么要明白的。命令就是命令。”点灯的回答说。“早上好。”
"There is nothing to understand," said the lamplighter."Orders are orders. Good morning."
于是他又熄灭了路灯。
And he put out his lamp.

小王子-The Little Prince-Read in Chinese

小王子第33章：命令就是命令

One of Kafka's best-known works, The Metamorphosis was first published in 1915. It is often cited as one of the seminal works of fiction of the 20th century and is still widely studied in high schools, colleges, and universities across the world. This striking novella tells the story of salesman Gregor Samsa who wakes one morning to find himself mysteriously transformed into a huge insect.

Gregor subsequently struggles, unsuccessfully, to adjust to his new condition. The cause of Gregor's sudden and inexplicable transformation is never revealed, and Kafka himself never gave an explanation. The bulk of the story deals with Gregor's attempts to adjust to his new condition as he deals with being burdensome to his family, which is repulsed by the strange, giant, and verminous creature Gregor has become.

Literary critics and readers alike have generally interpreted The Metamorphosis to be a parable about the individual’s sense of finding himself victimized by large impersonal forces in society which are beyond one's grasp or ability to deal with. Horror, humor, and the surrealism of dreams are all present from the first sentence and stand to this day in this illuminating evocation of the condition of the modern, alienated anti-hero.

Written by Franza Kafka; English translation read by Jason Rosette

こんにちは！
Japanese daily life podcast のAtsushiです。
このPodcastは、日本語を勉強しているみなさんに向けたPodcastです。

今日はサウナについて話そうと思います。
みなさんはサウナに行きますか？

ぼくは今までほとんど行ったことがなかったんです。
ですが、最近行ってとても良かったのでその話をしようと思います。



サウナはフィンランドが発祥とされるようです。
石を積み上げたストーブを高温に加熱して、そこに水をかけて蒸気を発生させます。

室内温度は60〜90℃ぐらいです。

サウナに数分入った後、外に出て水風呂に入ったり、外の空気にふれた後、またサウナに入る、ということを繰り返します。これによって、体の中はアドレナリンがたくさん出ている興奮状態と体の外は外気温に触れてリラックスするという特別な状態が生まれます。

これが、最近の日本では"ととのう"という状態だそうです。Wikipedia情報ですが、間違ってたらすみません。

サウナに行っている人はそのとても気持ちいい状態があることは知っていると思います。

日常では味わうことのない、脱力感というか、開放感というか、そんな不思議な感覚です。

個人的には乾燥肌でアトピー性皮膚炎もあるので、発汗、汗をかくことはとても大切なんですね。ですので、僕にとっては健康でいるための良い方法だと思います。

体も気持ちもリフレッシュできるサウナ、もし行ったことがない人はぜひ行ってみてください！めっちゃ気持ちいいですよ！

ということで、今回は以上です。
最後まで聞いていただき、ありがとうございます！

ではまた！
