呵呵，louis wu 的确比较有亲和力，Jacob de Zoet 那样也真实。Sparrow里的人物也
不是没缺点，但是那些缺点太容易讨人同情，而且相貌极美或极丑或极高，卡通化了。
还想起一个nit —— 那个牧师说话间总是‘eyes alight’，再老练些的作者应该不会

由于篇幅限制，故事就没有shogun那么fancy了，但是那些句子的文笔是杠杠的：

一而安天下,而今,天佑我大中华,沧海桑田5000年,中华神州平地一声雷,飞沙走石,大舞

THE INNOCENT
It was a mistake to take Lola there. I knew it the moment we alighted from
the train at the small country station. On an autumn evening one remembers
more of childhood than at any other time of year, and her bright veneered
face, the small bag which hardly pretended to contain our things for the
night, simply didn't go with the old grain warehouses across the small canal
, the few lights up the hill, the posters of an ancient film |

It is very high,
and with our dream, we can fly!
In everyone's eye,
It will never die, history changes but eternal sky.
We trust in it cause it would never lie.
We alawys think, if there is alien?
and how the Gods live in the sky?
It is mysterious and vigorously alight,
Light us going by.
This is the just sky,
Always motivate us to fly and fly! |

SCHOOL-DAYS
I.
In the melting snow on the hill-side by the sea, in the last rays of the
evening sun, stood a boy of fourteen, awestruck. He looked toward the west,
out across the sea; he looked toward the east, over town and shore and the
broad hills; in the background still higher peaks rose far away in the clear
sky.
The storm had lasted a long time; it had been more terrible, too, than any
the old people could remember. In ... 阅读全帖 |

是修炼出来的还是天生具有的呢？看资料俺推断不出来，只是知道会有很多的仪式和咒

比如，Book of the Dead里面说到神奇的Transformation，就是使死人的灵魂转世成为
鹰阿等等（那时候好像是相信灵魂的转世的），其中的诵唱是这样的

forth from his egg.
May I fly and may I hover as a hawk, with a back seven cubits wide, and with
wings made of emeralds of the South.

发帖数: 18873 | 15 科学家注意到，斑马头上的条纹非常细，它们在吃草时这个部位需要靠近地面，因此极
易受到蚊虫叮咬
北京时间4月9日消息，科学家现在终于了斑马身上的斑纹的用途，答案并非黑和白那么
简单。他们表示，尽管斑马身上的黑白条纹通常被认为是用来伪装的，但是这些斑纹的
进化是为了让携带疾病的苍蝇远离它们的可能性更大。
这听起来非常不可思议，研究显示，苍蝇发现自己很难降落在这些斑纹上，斑马身
上这种大小的条纹对驱赶这些小飞虫特别有效果。斑马小腿上的条纹非常细，苍蝇在吸
取母牛等其他动物的血液时，特别喜欢选择这个部位。而且斑马头上的条纹也很细，因
为在吃草时，它们的脑袋需要靠近地面。这种理论是由美国研究人员提出的，他们寻找
证据，用来支持有关斑马是如何获得它们的斑纹的各种解释。
科学家很快不再考虑斑马的斑纹只是作为伪装，让这种动物在不断变化的林地光线
下更难被发现的想法，这是因为斑马的很大一部分时间都是在开阔地度过的。另一种非
常受欢迎的理论认为，斑马身上的斑纹令食肉动物感觉眼花缭乱，因此导致它们更难判
断眼前猎物的大小和速度。然而美国加利福尼亚大学的调查发现，狮子对捕捉斑马特别
擅长。其他一些理论，例如这... 阅读全帖 |
