Read the Chiese poem that was granted a perfect score by the College Entrance Examination in China. Then Read the English version translated by Terri and see if you like it.
這是一篇朋友寄給我的高考作文滿分作品-選擇, 有佳詞美句, 內容又很貼近基督的精神.
但願我們, 也能擁有如詩中形容的精神, 因看見真善美的行動所帶來的回報, 選擇作出相應的回應.
是的! 我們的神,耶穌是一位賜信望愛的神, 也是真善美的源頭, 神會使用你我選擇無私的行動, 把祝福和永生賜給我們身邊的人.

如果我是一片雲，
我會放棄高高在上，
我選擇化作一滴滴小雨飄落人間。
你要問我為什麼，
請看看那些鬱鬱蔥蔥的生命，
那，就是我的答案。
If I were a piece of cloud;
I would not stay up high in the sky, and
I would choose to become dew droplets appearing on the field.
You ask me why,
The greenish life you'll see on the field
is my answer.
如果我是一支河流，
我會放棄奔流到海，
我選擇化為甘泉流入麥田。
你要問我為什麼，
請聽聽農民伯伯喜悅的笑聲，
那，就是我的答案。
If I were a flowing river;
I would not flow into the sea, and
I would choose to flow into the wheat field.
You ask me why,
The laughter you'll hear from the farmers
is my answer.
如果我是一株靈芝，
我會放棄長命百歲，
我選擇化為一滴滴藥湯灌入人口中。
你要問我為什麼，
請看看那位康復病人的笑臉，
那，就是我的答案。
If I were a medicinal mushroom, ling zhi;
I would give up my immortality, and
I would like to be crashed into herbal medicine.
You ask me why,
Cheerful face of the recovered patient
is my answer.
如果我是一塊礦石，
我會放棄平靜安逸，
我選擇熔入爐中化為滾燙的鋼水。
你要問我為什麼，
請看看那一座座的高樓大廈，
那，就是我的答案。
If I were an iron ore;
I would give up my restful life, and
I would feed myself into blast furnaces.
You ask me why
Block of high-rises is my answer.
如果我是一隻白鴿，
我會放棄自由嬉戲，
我選擇永不停息地把橄欖枝銜到戰爭的國度。
你要問我為什麼，
請看看那些飽受戰爭痛苦的兒童正在快樂地玩耍，
那，就是我的答案。
If I am a white dove;
I would give up my freedom for fun; and
I would choose to carry olive branches to the children at war field.
You ask me why,
The fun children have at the battle field is my answer.
人生，是一篇做不完的選擇題，
向前？向後？往左？往右？
如果你已迷失方向，瞧瞧你心靈中的真、善、美吧，
那，就是你的答案。
Life is full of choices.
Go to the front, the back, the right, or the left?
If you lost your sense of direction, listen to the voice of the truth, goodness, and beauty,
They will point you to the answer.
