To Experience the Life-体验生活

To Experience the Life
Saturday                  Nov. 15,   2003               Cloudy
   My teacher gave me an assignment "experience life" last week. I had been thinking how to finish it because I had never done any thing by  myself before.
   Mother was out today. It was a good chance to complete the assignment. Seeing the barrel was empty, I decided to fetch water from the well.
   I took the empty barrel and went towards the well outside the yard. It snowed yesterday, so the alley was very slippery. A layer of thickice was frozen on the platform of the well. I was frightened by the sight, but I gathered my courage to walk towards it. I stepped on the platform carefully. After standing steadily and squatting down slowly, I hooked the barrel at the end of the rope and put the rope down slowly. I made an effort to drag the barrel up after it was filled with water. I was very careful because it was easy to slip and fall. Then, I carried the barrel of water and returned to my house. My figners were frozen stiff. The alley was so slippery that I walked with difficultly. Suddenly, I slipped and fell down, water in the barrel totally poured down on the ground. I realized my effort was in vain. I hated myself.
   I failed to finish the assignment but I did experience life through a trifle which seemed easy but difficult to do well. Such was my first experience of life.
体验生活

   上周老师给我布置了一个“体验生活”的作业。我一直考虑怎么完成，因为以前我从未单独做过什么事。
   妈妈今天不在家，这是一个完成作业的好机会。看到水桶是空的，我就决定去井边打水。
   我拎起空桶向院外的水井走去。昨天刚刚下过雪，小路非常滑，井台上还冻了厚厚的一层冰。我被这种景象吓住了，但还是鼓足勇气向井边走去，小心翼翼地走上井台，站稳了，慢慢蹲下后，我把水桶挂在绳子一端的钩子上，然后慢慢地放下去，水灌满后我用劲把桶拽了上来。我非常小心，因为随时都有滑倒的可能。我拎着水桶往家里走。我的手指已经冻僵了，小径是如此滑，我艰难地向前走着。突然，我滑了一下，摔倒了，桶里的水全泼在地上。我意识到我的努力全白废了，我好恨自己啊!
   我没有完成这次作业，但我的确通过一件看似简单、却难做好的小事体验到了生活。这就是我第一次体验生活的经过。
