We just moved into our new flat last week, and we love the new place too. I was sitting outside my new home yesterday, watching the world go by.
There were people in 36 , in a hurry to get to their next appointment. There were 37 flying nearby, insects just as busy as the people in cars, flowers 38 in the warm and damp climate.
Inside the house, my children were also busy, as ever, making a 39 of the house , which my wife and I would soon clean up, their natural 40 defeating our previous requirements for them not to play with lotion ( 护肤液 ) or take things 41 .
The sky was 42 cloudy and there was a cool breeze ( 微风 ), quite gentle and 43 actually.
It’s not often that 44 of us just sit quietly, enjoying the world .
Why not?
What is 45 important that it can't wait until later? 46 email must be answered right this moment? Do we really need to 47 all those articles online, all those messages from 48 , and all those newspapers and magazines? Do we need to 49 the television and radio and Internet on all the time?
Is life passing us by as we keep our minds 50 ? Are we 51 the beautiful world around us as we constantly think about the 52 ― what we will do, our 53 about what might happen ― and the past ― what we did wrong, what someone else did to us, what we said, what 54 have happened?
When was the 55 time you just sat, and observed? Why not do it today?

teenage girl in a pink sweater puts her hand on his shoulder
and flashes a peace sign at the camera.
"Everybody wants to understand what Mo Yan'' s life used to be like, when we were young," says Guan, lead-ing a small crowd inside the abandoned house to a dusty room where Mo, now 57, was married. A broken antique radio – a wedding gift, Guan says – sits on a
crumbling concrete bed, untouched for decades.
Gaomi people are extremely proud of their Nobel prizewinner, whom they fondly refer to as "Teacher Mo Yan". Long red banners(横幅)congratulating Mo hang from the sides of concrete homes along major streets.
Guan Moxin recalls one tourist who ate a bean from a vine(腾)near their childhood home, threw his arms in the air, and declared that he had consumed a tiny piece of Mo’s Nobel miracle.
“Mo Yan’s works have elements from Gaomi’s culture,”says Mao Weijie,an official who over-sees the newly-built Mo’Yan museum in a local high school.“He writes about Gaomi paper-cutting,for example,and sometimes he writes using our Gaomi dialect.”
Guan Yifan,Mo’s father,says that Mo does not come hack home often,but when he does,“we just talk about what’8 happening our home hew the tomatoes are growing,that type of thing.”Inside the house,faded family pictures hang on newspaper-covered walls;outside,his courtyard over-flows with corn,the fruits of a good harvest.
Although Guan says that he has never read his son’s books,he is proud of Mo’s achievements.“We’re all just happy,”he says.“Very,very happy.”
