四季狂想記

又結束了一天的學習，合上筆電後我看向窗外。月夜格外靜謐，星光璀璨耀眼，夜景依舊如此引人入勝，一如疫情發生之前般美麗。圓月當空，有人説外國的月亮比較圓，但此時的月亮，真的更圓嗎？
時間的齒輪迴轉起來……似乎又是2020年2月末，寒假結束，我這時應該已經搭上了回中國的班機。又可以見到那群活潑好動的好朋友，又可以回到校園開始新的學習旅程，又可以在異國開始新的冒險之旅。這時的北京應是雪白一片，但卻不如寒假前的冬天那般寒冷。我拖著行李，踏著白雪，一步一步地走向敞開的校園大門，周圍還有和我一起回校的學生，大家臉上都寫滿了對學習生活的熱忱和對未來的憧憬。
隨著冬去春來，萬物復蘇，時間河流沖刷過的北京，漸漸又有了春的色彩，生活也變得更加忙碌起來。但春天的美好，仍舊不容錯過，於是我與朋友們忙裏偷閒地逛起了校園。我們沐浴在溫柔的陽光下，在紅橋周圍緩步漫行，欣賞春日風光。高貴優雅的黑天鵝正坐在草地上梳理自己美麗的羽毛，姿態間優雅又充滿了神氣；勤勞的小蜜蜂紛飛于花叢中，忙碌地採集花蜜，認真專注地完成自己的工作。美景如畫，我看得入神，腦裏浮現出詩句：“紛飛花蕊間，不得半日閒。脈脈花香終成蜜，一分辛勞一分甜。”接著，我們繼續走到湖邊，湖面如鏡，倒映出湖邊的美景——幾隻白鵝在岸上和我們一起觀賞著，這時，一群鴨子悠哉遊哉地遊了過來，劃破了平靜的湖面，於是白鵝便也下水湊起熱鬧來。此情此景，往常忙碌的我們在它們的感染下，心情變得格外放鬆。

春天忽而離去，蟬鳴響起，陽光愈加灼熱。潮濕悶熱的教室裏，學生們昏昏欲睡，但隨著學期末的到來，纏著學生的瞌睡蟲也被趕跑了，大家都挺直腰板、瞪大眼睛、豎起耳朵，生怕錯過教授説的任何一個重點。經歷了長達兩個星期的考試，終於迎來了心心唸唸的暑假。夏天，陽光與海灘必不可少，於是我們一行人出發到海南三亞，開始我們的夏天之旅。六月是三亞旅遊的淡季，旅客相對較少，因此可以遠離喧囂，好好地放鬆身心。海水清澈，椰林樹影，我們愜意地在沙灘漫步。海底珊瑚豐富多彩，水上項目精彩刺激，當地美食清新可口。這趟三亞之旅可謂不虛此行。
轉眼暑假結束，秋天悄然而至。我最喜歡秋天，天朗氣清，遍地橙紅色的落葉，每次在戶外都可以感受微風輕柔地拂過臉頰。“嘎吱嘎吱”，這是我最喜歡的踩落葉的聲音，清脆悅耳。老師説，秋天一定要到香山公園觀賞紅葉。於是，趁著週末，我們又開始了另一次遊玩之旅。來到香山，紅葉如花海般熱烈，綻放枝頭。不過，紅葉固然美麗，古色古香的建築也吸引了我的目光，它們默默地矗立在那裏，見證著歷史長河留下的滄桑。我也拾起一片漂亮的落葉，將它做成書籤，見證我讀過的書籍，記錄我看過的美景。

北京的秋天是短暫的，天氣很快變得又冷又乾燥，太陽起床的時間也越來越晚。冬天的風來勢洶洶，把堅硬的樹榦吹得稍稍彎腰，還把宿舍前的單車都推倒了。終於，白雪如約而至，我和同伴們見到降雪興奮不已，跑到室外的空地和其他人一起堆雪人、打雪仗，神奇的白雪消除了我們之間的隔閡。下雪後，我們又來到萬里長城參觀，被白雪點綴的萬里長城少了幾分嚴肅，多了幾分浪漫。寒冷的冬天，熱騰騰的火鍋也是必不可少的，爬完長城的我們到火鍋店享用晚餐。寒冷的天氣和麻辣的湯底已是絕配，再蘸上甜甜鹹鹹的麻醬，簡直就是味蕾的盛宴！我們興奮地分享今天的所見所聞，悄悄地夾走朋友放進湯裏的肉，又熱情地夾菜給朋友吃，好不快樂。

我緩緩睜開眼睛，熱鬧不見，四週依舊平靜，桌案上的筆電還餘下一絲溫度。我伸了伸懶腰，走向窗邊，還是那片朦朧的月色，繁星也依舊在閃爍。如果沒有疫情，2020年只是另一個年代的開端，是再普通不過的一年，平凡而美好。共用美食、寒暄握手、聊天打鬧、旅遊閒逛，疫情讓所有平凡的事物變得更加珍貴。再多的美好都靜待發生，只是無奈如今的我只知道，明天出門採購要戴好口罩，避免與人接觸，保持人身距離。
My Fantasy of Four Seasons
〔Malaysia〕 Tan Zi Hua， Beijing Institute of Technology
After another day of study， I closed my notebook and looked out of the window． The moonlit night is particularly quiet and peaceful with bright and shinning stars． The night is as alluring and beautiful as before the outbreak of the epidemic． A full moon hung high in the sky． Someone says that the moon in foreign countries is relatively rounder， but is the moon above me rounder？
The gear of time flies back．．． It was late February 2020， which marked the end of the winter vacation． I should have caught a flight to return to China． I should have met those lively and active friends again， returned to the campus to start a new journey of study and kicked off a new adventure in a foreign country． At this time， Beijing should be snow－white， but not as cold as the winter before vacation． I dragged my luggage and treaded on the snow step by step towards the college gate． Around me were also students returning to school． Everyone’s faces were full of passion for study and vision for the future．
As winter leaves and there comes the spring， everything on earth comes back to life． Beijing， washed away by the river of time， gradually displays the colour of spring． People’s life was on a fast track again． But the beauty of spring should not be missed． My friends and I wandered around the campus． We bathed in the gentle sunshine， walked slowly and leisurely around the red bridge and enjoyed the spring． The elegant black swans sat on the grass combing their beautiful feathers， stylish and full of air； Industrious little bees were flying in the flowers， busy with collecting honey and doing their work attentively． The beautiful scenery was picturesque． I was absorbed in it and a poem came upon my mind “Flying among the flowers， they can’t rest for an hour． The fragrance will eventually become honey． Every little bit of sweetness comes from every little bit of labour．” Then， we continued to walk to the lake． Like a mirror， the lake reflected the beautiful scenery by the water． Several white geese watched us on the shore． At the moment， a group of ducks swam leisurely and broke the tranquil lake． The white geese couldn’t help joining them． Escaping from the busy schedule， we were appealed by the campus view and felt at ease．
Spring does not last long． Cicadas were chirping as the sunlight became scorching hot． The students were sleepy in the muggy classroom． However， with the approaching of the end of the semester， the drowsiness of the students was driven away． Everyone straightened up with wide open eyes and ears for fear of missing any key point said by the professor． Going through two weeks of exams， we finally ushered in the summer vacation． Sunshine and beaches are essential in summer and so we set out for Sanya， Hainan Province to start our summer trip． June is the off－season for tourism in Sanya， which sees relatively less tourists． Therefore， we could stay away from the noise and have a real relaxation． The sea was clear and shadows of the coconut trees were swinging in the wind． We strolled pleasantly along the beach； The sea corals were rich and colourful． The overwater activities were exciting and stimulating． The local food was fresh and delicious． What a rewarding trip！
In the twinkling of an eye， the summer vacation was over and autumn came quietly． I like autumn most． The sky was crystal clear and cloudless and the land was decorated with orange red leaves everywhere． Being outdoor every time， I could feel the breeze gently brushing my cheeks． “Crunching， crunching” is my favourite sound of stepping on fallen leaves， crisp and pleasant． Our teacher said that we must go to the Fragrant Hills to enjoy the red leaves in autumn． Therefore， we started another trip． The red leaves of Fragrant Hills Park were blooming like a sea of flowers． Although the red leaves were beautiful， the ancient buildings also drew my attention． They stood there silently and witnessed the vicissitudes left by the long river of history． I picked up a beautiful leaf and made it into a bookmark to record the books I had read and the beautiful scenery I had seen．
Autumn in Beijing is short． The weather soon became cold and dry and the sun got up later and later． The wind in winter was so fierce that it made the hard trunk bend slightly and pushed down the bicycles in front of the dormitory． Finally， the snow arrived as promised． My companions and I were very excited at the snow falling． We ran to the open ground to make snowmen and have snowball fights with others． The magical snow narrowed the distance between us． After the snow stopped， we came to the Great Wall again． Dotted with snow， it was a little less serious and a little more romantic． Hot pot was also a must in cold winter． After climbing the Great Wall， we went to a hot pot restaurant for dinner． Cold weather and spicy soup were a perfect match． Dipping the food in the sweet and salty sesame sauce， we did feel it was a feast for our taste buds！ We excitedly shared what we saw and heard on the day and stealthily took away the meat our friends put into the soup． Meanwhile we also served food to friends． How happy we were！
I slowly opened my eyes and bustling scenes were gone． Everything was still calm around me． There was still a little bit of warmth remained in the notebook on the desk． I stretched myself and walked to the window． The moonlight was still hazy and the stars were shinning． If there had been no epidemic， 2020 would have been just the beginning of another year． It would have been an ordinary year， nothing special but something splendid． The ordinary things， such as enjoying delicious food together， exchanging greetings and shaking hands， chatting and playing， traveling and wandering， became more precious due to the epidemic situation． I am patient to wait for more good things to take place soon after the epidemic ends． Now I have no choice but understand that I should wear a mask when I go out shopping tomorrow， avoid contact with people and keep distance from others．
