• We spent the night in Yasu Shrine in Gion. Because of their burns, everyone was crying for water all night. The next morning, we were taken by truck to a Buddhist temple in Kabe. That night, my sister died. How can I describe Mother‘s grief ? How can I describe the horrible scenes I saw in the temple then? Who can imagine the miseries we went through except those who were there themselves? It is entirely beyond my power to put the terrible sight into words. Countless people suffering from burns and wounds, groaning with pain, their bodies covered with maggots（蛆）, and dying in delirium（精神 错乱）, one after another. It was hell on earth.

Hiroshima,theliveliestcityinJapan
英语1105 08方李亦圆The “liveliest”city in JapanIt was my first time to go to Japan and it was also my first time to get to know Hiroshima——a city belongs to Japan.I was sent there to gather information about Hiroshima, but the very act of stepping on that soil, in breathing the air of Hiroshima was for me a far greater adventure than any trip or any reportorial assignment I’d previously taken. I started to blame my sentimentality although Japanese were not preoccupied with the same thought as I was.Admittedly, Japan is a country with high level of culture. The people there were not barbarous as we ever thought. The reason why I felt a sense of guilty for that soil was atomic bombardment, but everything I saw was normal, everyone I saw was fine.“Hiroshima is the liveliest city in Japan, a city known throughout the world for its oysters.” I didn’t decide to listen mayor’s speech when he spoke out this sentence; I just didn’t understand at the beginning, it’s obvious because of the bomb and misery. No one would easily forget that thousands upon thousands of people had been slain in one second.Someone told me there were few people wanted to talk about it, because it hurts everybody and time moves on, even if many of the town’s people still bear wounds or burns.Another news what shocked me was some committed suicide as a result of their injuries. They said it was humiliating to survive, because of prejudice for the scars.Patients there who suffered the atomic disaster unexpectedly had a feeling of happiness. But I don’t appreciate their optimism. It is not so much positive or optimistic as self-deception from heads of state and heads of government, right down to civilians.It is not a bad thing to move on, but it i s history, it’s a matter of fact. It’s the people who suffered the most pain both in mind and body. They have the right to choose forget but they cannot pretend to be live a good life. What I saw from their eyes was pain, helplessness even despair.It was unnecessary to ask the question I prepared before, because they have tried their best to hide the miserable experience and memory, it’s their last dignity.War always brings much pain to people they can’t bear, it’s cruel to reopen old wounds. I am sorry for what my country did to Japan, to Hiroshima ever before.。

Additional Background Knowledge1. The City of HiroshimaHiroshima, city on southwestern Honsh?Island (本州岛), Japan, capital of Hiroshima Prefecture, at the head of Hiroshima Bay. The city was founded in 1594 on six islands in the ?ta River delta(织⽥河). Hiroshima grew rapidly as a castle town and commercial city, and after 1868 it was developed as a military center. During World War II, it contained the 2nd Army Headquarters, which commanded the defense of all of southern Japan. The city was also a communications center, a storage point, and an assembly area for troops. Hiroshima thus became the primary target o the first U.S. nuclear attack mission.The center of the city contained a number of reinforced concrete buildings as well as lighter structures. Outside the center, the area was congested by a dense collection of small wooden workshops set among Japanese houses; a few larger industrial plants lay near the outskirts of the city. The houses were of wooden construction with tile roofs. Many of the industrial buildings were also of wood frame construction. The city as a whole was highly susceptible to fire damage.The population of Hiroshima had reached a peak of over 380,000 earlier in the war. At the time of the attack the population was approximately 255,000. This figure is based on the registered population, used by the Japanese in computing ration quantities, and the estimates of additional workers and troops who were brought into the city may not be highly accurate. After the war in 1949 the Japanese dedicated Hiroshima as an international shrine of peace. The city was largely rebuilt, andcommercial activities were resumed. Machinery, automobiles, food processing, and the brewing of sake （⽇本清酒）are the main industries. The surrounding area, although mountainous, has fertile valleys where silk, rice, and wheat are produced. The population in 1990 has reached 1,085,705.另：⽇本各岛岛名：The four largest islands are Honshū, Hokkaidō, Kyūshūand Shikoku, together accounting for 97% of Japan's land area.本州岛Honshū，九州岛Kyushū，四国岛Island Shikoku，北海道岛Hokkaidō。
