OWL POSTHarry Potter was a highly unusual boy in many ways. For one thing, he hated the summer holidays more than any other time of year. For another, he really wanted to do his homework but was forced to do it in secret, in the dead of night. And he also happened to be a wizard.It was nearly midnight, and he was lying on his stomach in bed, the blankets drawn right over his head like a tent, a flashlight in one hand and a large leather-bound book (A History of Magic by Bathilda Bagshot) propped open against the pillow. Harry moved the tip of his eagle-feather quill down the page, frowning as he looked for something that would help him write his essay, "Witch Burning in the Fourteenth Century Was pletely Pointless discuss."The quill paused at the top of a like...

何以长恨复相思by墨银我一直不能理解为何他会喜欢我这么一个和市井小人物差不离儿的公主,他说:初时长恨,复又相思。我不懂。他也不说话,淡淡的看过来,须臾间眉目如雪,落了一地的芝寇丹华。第一卷 浮生若梦1皇室血统我的二哥沐止薰最近迷上了一个民间女子。我去御花园采莲蓬的时候路过凌霄殿,看到他还直挺挺跪在殿前,急的身边一群太监宫女围着他团团转,跟一群拉磨的驴似的。我抬头望了望天,这炎夏里大日头的,都能把莲池给照成温泉喽,还是冒烟的那种,他竟然就这么跪在日头底下。难怪从我这个角度看过去,觉得他那一头乌发似乎有青烟在冉冉升起。我还是很同情沐止薰的,我觉得如果我是他,我肯定不会挑这种一天里最热的时候给自己找罪受。其实他完全可以在半夜里晒着月光吹着凉风哼着小曲儿皱着他的小眉头,做出一副苦大仇深的样子跪在殿前给老头子看,这样老头子估摸着就算很想陷在哪个妃子的温柔乡里欲仙欲死,想起他这...

作者:杜鹏程论《保卫延安》冯雪峰我们的战士,把自己的全部生命、青春、血汗,都交给了人民事业。他们即使去赴汤蹈火粉身碎骨,也积极自动毫无怨言。一个人,望着他们就不知道什么叫艰难畏惧。一个人比比他们,就觉得自己贡献太少,就觉得自己站在任何岗位上都不应该有什么不满意。人面对他们,还有什么个人打算,那会羞愧而死!这种鼓舞人的力量,当然并不只限于它所描写的个别英雄的。全书都充满着令人振奋的力量。但是,这种鼓舞力量说明什么呢?这部作品,大家将都会承认,是够得上称为它所描写的这一次具有伟大历史意义的有名的英雄战争的一部史诗的。或者,从更高的要求说,从这部作品还可以加工的意义上说,也总可以说是这样的英雄史诗的一部初稿。它的英雄史诗的基础是已经确定的了。我们读者的亲切的感受,也就是可靠的证明:在它强烈而统一的气氛里,在它对于战争的全面而有中心的描写里,这么集中地、鲜明地、生动有力...

Winters on Ballybran were generally mild, so the fury of the first spring storms as they howled across the land was ever unexpected. This first one of the new season swept ferociously across the Milekey Ranges, bearing before its westward course the fleeing sleds of crystal singers like so much jetsam. Those laggard singers who had tarried too long at their claims were barely able to hold their bucking sleds on course as they bolted for the safety of the Heptite Guild plex. Inside the gigantic Hangar, its baffles raised against the mach winds, ordered confusion reigned. Crystal singers lurched from their sleds, half deafened by windscream, exhausted by their turbulent flights. The Hangar crew, apparently possessed of eyes in the backs of their heads, miraculou...
