When she was alone, Mary felt lonelier than ever. She went out of the house and ran around the garden ten times. Ben was working around it.
“ Spring is coming,” he said to Mary. “I can smell it in the air. Soon there will be spring flowers.” At this moment, the robin(知更鸟) flew towards them and landed at Mary’s feet.
“He remembers me,” she said.
“He knows everything that happens here,” Ben said. “ Only he knows what’s happening in the garden that has no door into it. No one else has been inside it for ten years”.
Ben walked away to continue his work. Mary bent down and began talking to the robin. She felt happier than she had ever felt.
The robin trusted her and did not fly away. It began pecking(啄食) at the ground, looking for a worm to eat. Mary looked closely at the ground. She saw something that looked like metal(金属).She picked it up. It was dirty and rusty. She cleaned it and saw that it was a key.
“It has been in the ground for many years,” she thought. “I wonder if it is the key to the garden. If it is, then I must find the door.”
Mary skipped around the garden. The robin followed her. Mary stopped skipping and spoke to the robin.
“He showed me where to find the key,” she thought. “Can you show me where the door is ”
The robin sat on the top of the garden wall. It began to sing. The wall was covered with ivy(常春藤). Mary pulled at a piece of the ivy. It came away from the wall. Behind the wall was a door.

The wind so swift, the sky so wide, apes wail and cry; Water so clear and beach so white, birds wheel and fly. The boundless forest sheds its leaves shower by shower; The endless river rolls its waves hour after hour.
A thousand miles from home, I’m grieved at autumn plight; I’ll now and then for years, alone I’m on this height.
Living in times so hard, atfrosted hair I pine; Cast down by poverty, I have to give up wine.
(Translated by Xu Yuanchong)
Du Fu(712-770) is one of the greatest Chinese poets in history. But he went through many difficulties during his life. Poor and ill, he wrote this poem at 56 years old. The cold autumn made him feel sad about his situation.
From the first line, we can tell that Du was not in a good mood(心情). The key phrase(短语) is “ apes wail and cry”(猿啸哀)—only sad ears can hear sad sounds. Then the poet sees the falling leaves and the running river. He uses natural scenery to show his sadness. Though he was a talented scholar(学者), Du’s career(仕途) was a failure . With little money, he and his family always lived a hard life . So when he looked outside, he saw showers and waves of sadness.
Traveling should be fun when you have money and health. Sadly, Du had neither. Du traveled because he needed to stay alive. He went to different places to stay with relatives and friends, or to find temporary(临时的) work. Worries and sadness turned his hair gray. What’s worse, he couldn’t even buy the wine that he needed to forget his sad feelings. That makes the poem even sadder.

“ Spring is coming,” he said to Mary. “I can smell it in the air. Soon there will be spring flowers.” At this moment, the robin(知更鸟) flew towards them and landed at Mary’s feet.
“He remembers me,” she said.
“He knows everything that happens here,” Ben said. “ Only he knows what’s happening in the garden that has no door into it. No one else has been inside it for ten years”.

The wind so swift, the sky so wide, apes wail and cry; Water so clear and beach so white, birds wheel and fly. The boundless forest sheds its leaves shower by shower; The endless river rolls its waves hour after hour.
A thousand miles from home, I’m grieved at autumn plight; I’ll now and then for years, alone I’m on this height.
Living in times so hard, atfrosted hair I pine; Cast down by poverty, I have to give up wine.
(Translated by Xu Yuanchong)
Du Fu(712-770) is one of the greatest Chinese poets in history. But he went through many difficulties during his life. Poor and ill, he wrote this poem at 56 years old. The cold autumn made him feel sad about his situation.
From the first line, we can tell that Du was not in a good mood(心情). The key phrase(短语) is “ apes wail and cry”(猿啸哀)—only sad ears can hear sad sounds. Then the poet sees the falling leaves and the running river. He uses natural scenery to show his sadness. Though he was a talented scholar(学者), Du’s career(仕途) was a failure . With little money, he and his family always lived a hard life . So when he looked outside, he saw showers and waves of sadness.
Traveling should be fun when you have money and health. Sadly, Du had neither. Du traveled because he needed to stay alive. He went to different places to stay with relatives and friends, or to find temporary(临时的) work. Worries and sadness turned his hair gray. What’s worse, he couldn’t even buy the wine that he needed to forget his sad feelings. That makes the poem even sadder.
