Bigfoot,which was first seen in North America,is one of the world-famous mysteries.
Witnesses described it as an ape-like creature. It was said to be 6-10 feet tall,weighing over 500 pounds and was covered in brown or red fur with large eyes and a big head. Footprints up to 24 inches long have been found.
Teams of scientists and researchers who have gone there to do research have found things related to it,such as waste,fur,footprints and so on. However,so far there has been no other evidence to prove its existence.
As far as I am concerned,it may be just folk tales or stories to terrify hikers and hunters in North America.

《飘》是美国著名女作家玛格丽特·米歇尔创作的一部具有浪漫主义色彩、反映南北战争题材的小说。主人公斯佳丽身上表现出来的叛逆精神和艰苦创业、自强不息的精神,一直令读者为之倾心。该作于1937年获得普利策文学奖。
美篇呈现
Gone With the Wind(Excerpt)
Gerald had come to America from Ireland when he was twenty-one. He had come hastily①, as many a better and worse Irishman before and since, with the clothes he had on his back,two shillings above his passage money and a price on his head that he felt was larger than his misdeed② warranted③.There was no Orangeman this side of hell worth a hundred pounds to the British government or to the devil himself; but if the government felt so strongly about the death of an English absentee landlord's rent agent,it was time for Gerald O'Hara to be leaving and leaving suddenly.True, he had called the rent agent“a bastard of an Orangeman”,but that,according to Gerald's way of looking at it,did not give the man any right to insult④ him by whistling the opening bars of “The Boyne Water”.
The Battle of the Boyne had been fought more than a hundred years before,but,to the O'Haras and their neighbors,it might have been yesterday when their hopes and their dreams,as well as their lands and wealth,went off in the same cloud of dust that enveloped⑤ a frightened and fleeing⑥ Stuart prince,leaving William of Orange and his hated troops with their orange cockades to cut down the Irish adherents of the Stuarts.
《飘》(节选)
21岁那年杰拉尔德从爱尔兰来到美国。像以前和以后许多形形色色的爱尔兰人那样,他是匆匆而来的。因为他只带着身上穿的衣服和买船票剩下的两个先令,以及悬赏捉拿他的那个身价,而且他觉得悬赏捉拿他的身价比他的罪行还高了一些。世界上还没有一个奥兰治派分子值得英国政府或魔鬼本身出一百镑,但是如果政府对于一个英国房东的房租代理人的死会那么认真,那么杰拉尔德·奥哈拉的突然出走便是适时的了。的确,他曾经称呼过房租代理人为“奥兰治派混蛋”,不过,按照杰拉尔德对此事的看法,这并不代表那个人就有权哼着《博因河之歌》那开头几句来侮辱他。
博因河战役是一百多年以前的事了,但是在奥哈拉家族和他们的邻里看来,就像昨天发生的事,那时他们的希望和梦想,他们的土地和钱财,都在那团卷着一位惊惶逃路的斯图尔特王子的魔雾中消失了,只留下奥兰治王室的威廉和他那戴着奥兰治帽徽的可恶的军队来屠杀斯图尔特王朝的爱尔兰信徒了。

Bigfoot，which was first seen in North America，is one of the world-famous
mysteries.
Witnesses described it as an ape-like creature. It was said to be 6-10 feet tall，
weighing over 500 pounds and was covered in brown or red fur with large eyes and
a big head. Footprints up to 24 inches long have been found.
Teams of scientists and researchers who have gone there to do research have
found things related to it，such as waste，fur，footprints and so on. However，so far
there has been no other evidence to prove its existence.
As far as I am concerned，it may be just folk tales or stories to terrify hikers
and hunters in North America.

Gone With the Wind（Excerpt）
Gerald had come to America from Ireland when he was twenty-one. He had
come hastily①， as many a better and worse Irishman before and since， with the
clothes he had on his back，two shillings above his passage money and a price on
his head that he felt was larger than his misdeed② warranted③.There was no
Orangeman this side of hell worth a hundred pounds to the British government or to
the devil himself； but if the government felt so strongly about the death of an
English absentee landlord's rent agent，it was time for Gerald O'Hara to be leaving
and leaving suddenly.True， he had called the rent agent“a bastard of an Orangeman”，
but that，according to Gerald's way of looking at it，did not give the man any right
to insult④ him by whistling the opening bars of “The Boyne Water”.
The Battle of the Boyne had been fought more than a hundred years before，but，
to the O'Haras and their neighbors，it might have been yesterday when their hopes
and their dreams，as well as their lands and wealth，went off in the same cloud of
dust that enveloped⑤ a frightened and fleeing⑥ Stuart prince，leaving William of
Orange and his hated troops with their orange cockades to cut down the Irish
adherents of the Stuarts.
《飘》（节选）
21岁那年杰拉尔德从爱尔兰来到美国。像以前和以后许多形形色色的爱尔兰人那
样，他是匆匆而来的。因为他只带着身上穿的衣服和买船票剩下的两个先令，以及悬
赏捉拿他的那个身价，而且他觉得悬赏捉拿他的身价比他的罪行还高了一些。世界上
还没有一个奥兰治派分子值得英国政府或魔鬼本身出一百镑，但是如果政府对于一个
英国房东的房租代理人的死会那么认真，那么杰拉尔德·奥哈拉的突然出走便是适时
的了。的确，他曾经称呼过房租代理人为“奥兰治派混蛋”，不过，按照杰拉尔德对
此事的看法，这并不代表那个人就有权哼着《博因河之歌》那开头几句来侮辱他。
博因河战役是一百多年以前的事了，但是在奥哈拉家族和他们的邻里看来，就像
昨天发生的事，那时他们的希望和梦想，他们的土地和钱财，都在那团卷着一位惊惶
逃路的斯图尔特王子的魔雾中消失了，只留下奥兰治王室的威廉和他那戴着奥兰治帽
徽的可恶的军队来屠杀斯图尔特王朝的爱尔兰信徒了。
