        一个背影,让朱自清潸然泪下;一个眼神,让我终身悚然汗下。
        那是在我上中学时,因为有“瘸腿科”,加上当时传说文理不再分科,所以,尽管我的语文、英语成绩居班里前几名,但是数理化成绩却出奇的差。这样的情况下,肯定高考无望。因此,高一期末考试前,我彻底失望,回到家里。
        因自觉惭愧,回到家听说父亲正在田里拔草,我赶紧戴上草帽,到田里帮忙。学都上不好,再不勤快一点,会被人骂为“二流子”的。顶着烈日,到了田里,我告诉父亲,不想再上学,反正学不好了,还不如回家种田。
        我以为父亲会勃然大怒,他对我寄予很大的希望,当了一辈子的“睁眼瞎”,他不想我走他的老路。但是,父亲始终埋着头,并不理会我,好像并没有听进去我的话。我不怕父亲发火,却怕父亲的沉默。我不敢再说话了,只好随着他卖力地拔草。近晌午的太阳很毒,汗水在身上像虫一样爬,衣服贴在身上,抬起头,父亲仍然在埋头拔草,我怎好意思停下来……
        中午,回家吃过饭,父亲仍然没有就我退学的事发表意见。让我说什么好?情况很不妙,我知道,越是在闷热干燥的夏日午后,越会有突如其来的狂风暴雨。这沉默,让我忐忑不安。
        吃过饭,父亲说:“走吧,去地里把瓜秧翻一下,要不然今年地瓜就收不到了。”我拿起锄头就走。我就不信,父亲能干,我就不行。
        夏日午后的太阳实在太厉害,汗水把我弄得睁不开眼睛,要在学校,现在正是午睡的时侯,我早已经呵欠连天了——看父亲,光着黑黝黝的脊梁,仍在埋头翻秧——趁着父亲不注意,我跑到树阴底下枕着锄头就睡着了。
        好像没过多大一会儿,我就被父亲推醒。睁开眼,我看到父亲冷冷的眼神,那眼神很复杂,既有不屑、鄙夷,也有悲哀、绝望,还有许多我一下子说不出的内容……
        “当庄稼人你也不够格,躺在地头睡觉庄稼就会长出来?你那个样,二流子也比你强。你哄庄稼一天,庄稼就哄你一年。赶快起来!”
        父亲的眼神让我受不了,我的后脊早已经汗流下来了,不是热汗,是冷汗。
        当天晚上,回到家,我觉得浑身骨头都散了。摸着胳膊上已经晒脱了皮的地方,我的心乱成一锅粥。
        第二天早上,天刚蒙蒙亮,父亲又把我推起来。一睁眼,又是那眼神……我坐起来,恶狠狠地说了一句:“我要上学!”
        后来的事情变得很简单。高考后,我上了大学中文系。再后来,到电视台当上了一名记者。   
        尽管远离家乡,远离了父亲,但那眼神始终占据了我的记忆,回想起来就让我不忘。
        时至今日,我最喜欢的歌还是蔡琴《你的眼神》。这首歌的旋律很美,很忧郁,很沉静,很悠远,父亲的眼神不这样,但我想起来却抑制不住自己汹涌的感情。走到院子外,望着满天的繁星,我不由喃喃自语:“山一样沉默的父亲,我忘不了你的眼神!”

    If you ever visit an English village, make sure to look out for morris dancing. Undoubtedly one of the strangest traditions of English culture, morris dancing is a form of folk dancing that dates back to the 15th century. If you ever get the opportunely, you really have to see it.

    Men and women wearing old-fashioned, shabby clothing dance in the streets of towns and villages across the country during the holiday periods. Women wear long, frilly(有褶皱边的) skirts and men wear short trousers with bells attached to them. They dance to traditional folk music which is often played on traditional musical instruments.

    Some groups carry heavy black sticks which they beat against each other while they dance. Other groups wave handkerchiefs in the air while they perform. The dances are usually performed near a pub so that when it's over, the dancers and audience can sing some traditional folk songs over a pint of beer. The celebrations will often continue long into the night, by which point most people are too drunk to think about performing again.

    Morris dancing is a great English tradition but it's facing a big crisis. As the years go by, fewer and fewer young people are joining morris dancing groups. The dancers are getting older and older and eventually, if nothing is done to change this trends, the tradition will die out within the next few decades.

    If you've ever had the fortune to see morris dancing, you may understand why teenagers aren't rushing to sign up. Putting it to the point, it's not exactly the coolest thing for an 18-year-old to be doing. Why dress up in bells and funny costumes when you could be going clubbing? Or playing sport? Or doing anything else?

    However, it would be a great shame to lose such a fun and lively part of England's history and culture. It's important to look after some traditions and customs especially when it's something as harmless and happy as morris dancing. So here's a toast to the next generation of would-be morris dancers! Let's hope they don't leave it too late.
