No jardim

Sam is a meteor from outer space. After leaving his homeland orbit, Sam was pulled towards the nearest large planet. When entering Earth’s atmosphere, he faced so much resistance. This created extremely high temperatures which burned away layers and layers of his body. As a result, Sam, who used to be giant when floating in space, became so little that he could fit in a fisherman’s hand.
 
The overwhelming amount of pain Sam suffered as a result of his entry caused him to fall into a deep state of unconsciousness. When Sam struck the Earth, he was fast asleep. 

Waking up and opening his eyes, Sam sees nothing but a vast cloudless blue sky. An enormous wave of peace and serenity washes over him. He is like a newborn baby experiencing the wonder and mystery of life for the first time. For a few moments, this serene blueness the only mental phenomenon swimming around his meteor consciousness. Seconds later, questions appear. 

Where am I? What happened? What comes next?

Due to his traumatic experience, Sam has lost all memory of his life before coming to Earth. He rolls over and looks down the beach. There are some large laughing figures running around, chasing a flying red disk. Further away there are two large ones holding long boards under their arms while walking into the water. Closer to Sam, there are several little figures picking up other rocks and showing each other. 

“Wow, look at that one!” says one of the little boys. “It looks like emerald. With a little bit of sapphire too!” 

I wish that those boys will pick me up and take me with them… I want to explore, to see precisely what life on Earth has to offer…

“Come quick!” yells one of the boys, eagerly running straight to Sam. “Look at this one! It’s so strange and ugly, but fascinating at the same time!” 

“Grab it, quick! Before mom sees!” 

A distant voice calls for the two children to return to the family car. “Boys, we’re going now. Hurry up.”

我想小王子大概是利用一群候鸟迁徙的机会跑出来的。
I believe that for his escape he took advantage of the migration of a lock of wild birds.
在他出发的那天早上，他把他的星球收拾得整整齐齐，
On the morning of his departure he put his planet in perfect order.
把它上头的活火山打扫得干干净净。
He carefully cleaned out his active volcanoes.
他有两个活火山，早上热早点很方便。
He possessed two active volcanoes; and they were very convenient for heating his breakfast in the morning.
他还有一座死火山。
He also had one volcano that was extinct.
他想，“说不定它还会活动呢！”
But, as he said, "One never knows!"
他也把它打扫干净。
So he cleaned out the extinct volcano, too.
打扫干净了，它们就可以慢慢地有规律地燃烧，而不会突然爆发。
If they are well cleaned out, volcanoes burn slowly and steadily, without any eruptions.

火山爆发就象烟囱里的火焰一样。
Volcanic eruptions are like fires in a chimney.
当然，在我们地球上我们人太小，不能打扫火山，
On our earth we are obviously much too small to clean out our volcanoes.
所以火山给我们带来很多很多麻烦。
That is why they bring no end of trouble upon us.
小王子还把剩下的最后几颗猴面包树苗全拔了。他有点忧伤。
The little prince also pulled up, with a certain sense of dejection, the last little shoots of the baobabs.
他以为他再也不会回来了。
He believed that he would never want to return.
这天，这些家常活使他感到特别亲切。
But on this last morning all these familiar tasks seemed very precious to him.
当他最后一次浇花时，准备把她好好珍藏起来。
And when he watered the flower for the last time, and prepared to place her under the shelter of her glass globe,
他发觉自己要哭出来。
he realised that he was very close to tears.
“再见了。”他对花儿说道。
"Goodbye," he said to the flower.
可是花儿没有回答他。
But she made no answer.
“再见了。”他又说了一遍。
"Goodbye," he said again.

大家好，我是Yuli。欢迎收听我的播客。
今天想和大家聊一聊【颜色】的话题。
我们先从红色开始吧。如果我们说“她脸红了”，意思是“她害羞了。”因为害羞的时候我们的脸会变红。一个人很生气的时候，也可以说“他气得脸红。”。除了“脸红”，还有一个词叫“眼红”，意思是嫉妒别人。例如：“我看到他那辆漂亮的新车就非常眼红。”“红”还有“有名”的意思，我们可以说“他是个很红的明星。”也可以说“他是个很火的明星。”
第二个是黄色。如果一个人休息不好，或者营养不良，他的脸色看起来不太健康，我们可以说“他脸色发黄。”“黄”还有“没有了，失败了”的意思，例如：客户突然说不买他的房子了，这笔买卖黄了。 有一句俗语叫做“黄花菜都凉了”，意思是等一件事或者一个人等了很久，例如：你怎么才来，我等到黄花菜都凉了。黄色还有一个不好的意思，黄色笑话指的是blue jokes。
第三个是绿色。一个人很恐惧的时候，我们可以说他的脸绿了。例如：他吓得脸都绿了。生气的时候也可以说“他气得脸都绿了。”绿色的帽子在中国还有一个特别的意思，我们说一个人戴绿帽子，意思是他的另一半出轨了别的男人或者女人。
在西方股票市场，绿色代表股价上升；而在中国股票市场则相反，红色是上升，绿色是下跌。主要原因是，中国人喜欢红色。
你还知道哪些颜色的俗语？留言告诉我吧。我们下期见。
