鲁迅曾经说过：“想到生的乐趣，生固然可以留恋，但想到生的苦趣，无常也不一定是恶客。”是啊，那些曾经对生活充满信心的人，经历了生活的种种磨难，又有多少人能挺过来呢?
Lu Xun once said: "when you think of the joy of life, you can be nostalgic, but when you think of the bitterness of life, impermanence is not necessarily a bad guest." Yes, those who once had full confidence in life, experienced all kinds of hardships in life, how many people can survive?
那是一个令我最难忘的夏天，妈妈带我上街买东西。我们在路上遇见了一个熟人——一个年老残疾的孤寡老人。他有两个女儿，但女儿常年在外地打工，很少回来，只是按时间向家里寄钱，托邻居照顾。常听奶奶说，他从小就摔断了腿，走不得路，一直靠轮椅活动，但他从来没有自暴自弃，一直很乐观。
It was the most unforgettable summer for me. My mother took me shopping. On the way, we met an acquaintance - an old, disabled, lonely old man. He has two daughters, but her daughter works in other places all the year round and seldom comes back. She just sends money to her family according to time and entrusts her neighbors to take care of her. I often hear from grandma that he broke his leg and couldn't walk. He was always in a wheelchair, but he never gave up. He was always optimistic.
我遇见过他好几次了，每次遇到都会对我微笑，显的自信平和。第一次遇见他时，我站在他身后，他正在卖气球。只见他从容不迫地把打了气的气球栓在轮椅上，然后从口袋里面掏出一个没有充气的气球，用一个针管一样的东西来充气，接着把充满气的气球迅速用线绑好，他的动作很娴熟。许多孩子围着他，他微笑着向孩子们介绍。
I have met him several times. I smile at him every time. I feel confident and peaceful. The first time I met him, I was standing behind him. He was selling balloons. I saw that he calmly tied the inflated balloon to the wheelchair, then took out a balloon without inflation from his pocket, inflated it with something like a needle tube, and then quickly tied the inflated balloon with a wire. His movements were very skilled. Many children surrounded him, and he introduced them with a smile.
虽然女儿寄来的钱难以维持生活，但他从不因为这个多收别人的钱。当他拴好气球时，孩子们一边接过气球，一边把家长给的钱递上去。其中有一个妇女，多给了一元，他立刻把钱退了回去。妇女感到疑惑，但还没有等到她开口，男人就说：“谢谢您的好意，但我相信，我能赚钱养活自己，谢谢了”。妇女微笑着带着女儿离开了。我凝望着他那有骨气的背影，沉默了许久。
Although the money from his daughter is hard to support, he never overcharges others for it. When he tethered the balloon, the children took it and handed over the money from their parents. One of the women gave an extra dollar, and he immediately returned it. The woman was confused, but before she spoke, the man said, "thank you for your kindness, but I believe that I can earn money to support myself, thank you.". The woman smiled and left with her daughter. I gazed at his back and was silent for a long time.
气球簇拥在空中，把整个轮椅包围着，孩子们也簇拥在一起，把他包围着。他那瘦弱的，突出的脊梁靠在轮椅上，时不时轻轻捶打几下，可见他已经累的腰酸背痛了。但他又挺直了身躯。我又看到了他坚强的背影。
The balloon was in the air, surrounded the wheelchair, and the children were around him. His thin, protruding back was leaning on the wheelchair, and he occasionally hit him gently, which showed that he was tired of backache. But he straightened up again. I saw his strong back again.
他对生活一直充满了信心，他喜欢像正常人一样，在吃过晚饭后摇着轮椅去散步。人们用怜悯并同情的眼光看他，他不仅不介意，而且还主动微笑着和他们招呼。
He has always been full of confidence in life. He likes to walk in his wheelchair after supper like a normal person. People look at him with pity and sympathy. He not only doesn't mind, but also greets them with a smile.
当最后一缕阳光照在大地时，我和他相遇了。回头看时，他那用双手努力滑着轮椅的坚强的背影映入我的眼帘。一个对生活充满了希望的背影，一个令我难忘的背影，渐渐消失在落日的余晖中。
When the last ray of sunshine hit the earth, I met him. Looking back, I saw the strong back of him trying to slide the wheelchair with his hands. A back full of hope for life, a back that I will never forget, gradually disappeared in the afterglow of the sunset.
我忽然明白了这句话的深刻的含义——“人生真正的道路是一条简陋的绳索，倘若你能优雅地走在上面，或者不幸被他绊倒，你都要微笑，你要感激生命给予你这么多…
I suddenly understood the profound meaning of this sentence: "the real road of life is a simple rope. If you can walk gracefully on it or stumble over it unfortunately, you should smile and appreciate the life for giving you so much
