China --- July 9th, Sunday, Fine
The
offspring of the Confucius
Another hot day!
My parents are busy preparing a feast
for our lunch, for only on Sunday, we can enjoy a short family reunion.
It is around the lunch time, as usual,
I must do some contribution now.
 Open
the door and thread myself to the steamer outside. I try to rush
to the stall where I can buy some cool beer. The stall is located
at the end of a path,it is a nice and tranquil path, for on both
sides there is the campus of a middle-school. But my Gosh! What
the matter today, in front of me, it is definitely a traffic jam.
There are almost thousands of people there, some are hold the umbrellas
to hide themselves from the sharp sunshine, some are holding the
ice-cream and most of them just stare at the gate of the school,
seems forget everything including themselves. With a sharp bell
tolling, lots of students are rushing out. Everything is alive now.
Those people who are waiting outside struggle forward to meet their
kids. It is quite a fun when you pay attention to the different
expression on the different faces. Some eyes glittering with happiness
while some others hiding the trace of tear.
 what
a fool, I am! Today is the last day for the entrance examination
of the university. When I was a girl, all of my classmates called
the three days [from July 7th to July 9th] as the "Black July" and
this nickname is so popular nowadays in China that when you mention
it, everybody will remember the crucial exam.
More than 12-year endeavor, but only
one chance to show your fruit, I should say these three days is
really a suffering period for both the students and the parents.
"Nothing is lofty than reading books" a saying from our ancient
sage Confucius, nobody can evaluate the influence of the Confucius,
for his philosophy has already deeply rooted in all the aspects
of the Chinese daily life. If you really want to understand Chinese,
know something about our sage Confucius. I am deeply impressed by
the view in front of me, what a battle! I am so happy because I
believe a country who cherish knowledge so much must has a bright
future. At the same time, I fell the pressure, I can feel the sharp
competition, "WE NEED MORE CHANCES", I think that the dream of every
student.
