我眼中的魔鬼城域
新疆乌尔禾风城，又被称为魔鬼城，关于它奇妙的自然地貌景观的地质成因在互动百科上有详细的解释。http://www.hudong.com/wiki/%E4%B9%8C%E5%B0%94%E7%A6%BE
我眼中的魔鬼透过我的镜头，显示它诡异神秘。
Clingstone, an unusual, 103-year-old mansion in Rhode Island 's Narragansett Bay , survives through the love and hard work of family and friends.
Henry Wood, the owner, runs the house
like a camp: all skilled workers welcome.

Dolly是我们的邻居，她得了肺癌，已经离开我们快一年了。
在西方国家，当人们患了癌症或其他绝症，第一时间就会通知病人。医生会如实告知，你生命剩下的时间还有多少，让你对去世有充分的准备。 同时，给你时间去安排和计划你需要完成的事情，其中包括你未竟的理想，你可以选择探亲访友，治疗期间还能够尽量做自己喜欢的事情。Dolly，在病情确诊以后，在她自己能够完成一切的时候，对后事按照她自己的愿望作了全部的安排，对外孙女和她智障的女儿做了最大限度的表达她爱的事情。
在她生病以后的一年多里，她乐观开朗，一直到最后的日子，她都是自己做饭洗衣。她一直做力所能及的家务事，买适合自己的佩有帽子的时尚套装。这样，当她自己开车去医院作化疗时，她看上去和正常人一样。
我与她的告别，是马蹄莲安排的。让我亲自为她做中国味道（准确地说是我自己研制的适合老外的口味）的烤排骨。我亲自到超市选料，回家带着调料去她家烹调。接着，我们三人一同享用。
最后，我告诉她我将回中国，我们紧紧拥抱着对彼此说再见，艰难的告别，充满了信心和感动。
Dolly走了，她的微笑和她对待死亡的态度，常常令我想到她，忍不住要写下来。
Happy Birthday,
