     荷花已经开了不少了。荷叶挨挨挤挤的，像一个个碧绿的大圆盘。白荷花在这些大圆盘之间冒出来。有的才展开两三片花瓣儿。有的花瓣儿全展开了，露出嫩黄色的小莲蓬。有的还是花骨朵儿，看起来饱胀得马上要破裂似的。

材料一  越南战争历时12年，参战美军人数最多时达50多万，花费1650亿美元，是美国，二战后陷得最深、拖得最久、代价最大的一次以失败告终的侵略战争。1968年，反战示威游行遍及美国各地。1969年1月，在尼克松就任总统时，华盛顿上万名群众，高举着“尼克松是头号战犯”、“尼克松是亿万富翁的工具”等标语牌走上街头，举行大示威，吓得尼克松只好躲在防弹的“玻璃罩”里发表“就职演说”。

材料二  2012年5月，美国总统奥巴马28日在华盛顿市区的越南战争纪念墙前发表讲话，反思越南战争，表示要牢记越战教训。他说，越战是“美国历史上最沉痛的篇章之一”。雀讲话中，奥巴马强调，美国永远不应忘记越战的教训，战争的代价巨大，更会造成无辜平民的严重伤亡。他表示，战争本身并不光荣，应该受到厌弃。他说，越战的教训包括雀派出士兵参战时，应有明确目标和战略，领导人应对国民坦言战争的风险与进展，同时做好撤出部队的计划。
