Lovely China

Author: Fang Zhimin

Friend! China is the mother who gave birth to us. Do you think this mother is lovely? I think you

are of the same opinion as I am, you all think this mother is quite lovely and cute. In terms of climate, China

is in the temperate zone, not too hot, not too cold, like our mother's body temperature, not too high, not too low, the most

suitable for children to snuggle. To say the country, China's land is vast, thousands of miles across, as if my

our mother is a big body, chest wide back broad woman, unlike the Japanese girl as slim and thin

. China's many famous mountains, Yangtze River, and lakes symbolize the beautiful flesh lines and nests on our

mother's plump, firm, fat skin. The productivity of China's land is infinite

; the undeveloped treasures hidden under the earth are also infinite; the natural forces that have been abandoned and not utilized are

even more infinite, which does not symbolize our mother, who retains an infinite amount of milk, an infinite amount of power

to nourish her 40,000,000 children? I don't think there is a mother in the world who has raised more children than she has

. As for the beauty of China's natural scenery, I can say that not only the majestic Emei, charming

West Lake, elegant Yandang, and the "beautiful" Guilin landscape can be proud of the world

, enviable; in fact, China is everywhere is not beautiful, and everywhere is scenic, from the city to the countryside, a mountain, a mountain, a mountain, a mountain, a mountain, a mountain, a mountain, a mountain, a mountain, a mountain, a mountain.

Water, a hill and a ravine, as long as the slightest modification and cultivation, can become a lingering scenery; this is like

Our mother, she is a heavenly beauty, every part of her body, there is

Admirable beauty. China's long and curvy coastline, according to modern artists, symbolizes the curvaceous beauty of our mother

. Ahem! Mother! Beautiful mother, lovely mother, just because you are subjected to people

pressure and exploitation, made poor; not only can not buy a new good-looking clothes, you

self-adorned; even can not buy a bar of soap to wash your whole body scrubbing, so that the present is strange and ugly

kind of emaciated ragged and unclean description to! Ah! Our poor mother, who was born

beautiful, has now become a maiden! Standing in front of all the gorgeous wives in Europe and America, she was certainly ashamed of herself, and even in front of that little Japanese girl, she was ashamed of herself!

Listen! Friend! The mother went away and cried, and cried so sadly! She seemed to be cursing

"Have my 40,000,000 children been born in vain? Are they really like enchanted lions

, asleep all day long? Don't they know their great unifying power to fight the enemies who brutalize

and exploit their mothers? Don't they want to save their mothers from the hands of their enemies

and adorn their mothers also as one of the most brilliant, beautiful and honorable mothers

in the world?" My friend, do you hear the mournful cries and curses of the mother? Yes, yes, mothers curse rightly, ten

minutes rightly! We can't blame our mothers for crying, we can only blame the scum among us, suppressing ourselves,

looked at our kind and beautiful mother, suffering many unnecessary humiliation, and brutal

ravages! It's really not our place to be children, it's almost like we can't even love a mother anymore!

......

Now, China is certainly a broken country, but who is to say that China

doesn't have a bright future? No, not at all. We believe that China must have a bright future that can be praised

. The fact that the Chinese nation built a Great Wall and thousands of miles of canals long ago is a testament to the greatness of the Chinese nation's creativity! Once China has cut off the chains of imperialism in the midst of battle, purged its own front of traitors and sellers, and gained freedom and liberation

, this creativity will be brought into unlimited play. At that time, the face of China will be transformed by us

. All the poverty and famine, chaos and vendetta, hunger and cold, disease and pestilence, superstition

and ignorance, and the chronic opium poison that kills the Chinese nation, all these and more are the abominable gifts brought to us by imperialism

, and they will leave China with the imperialism in the future. My friend

,

I believe that by that time, there will be active creativity everywhere, progress everywhere,

songs of joy will replace lamentations, smiles will replace cries, wealth will replace poverty, health will replace

pain, wisdom will replace ignorance, love will replace hatred, the joy of life will replace the sorrow of death, and the bright gardens of the world will be replaced by the beautiful gardens of the world, which are the most beautiful in the world. Bright gardens will replace bleak wastelands! Then our nation will be able to stand before mankind without shame,

and the mother who bore us will be most beautifully adorned and join hands with all the mothers of the world

on an equal footing.

Such a glorious day is by no means in the distant future, but in the very near future, and we can believe in it

this way, my friend!

My friend, I have spoken too much! Well, I'll just say the next few words. I will tell you honestly that my love for China is still as sincere as it was when I was a schoolboy, and my desire to overthrow the imperialists and liberate China is still as hot as ever. But now I am

a prisoner awaiting execution! I do not have the opportunity to do my best for the Chinese nation, I write this letter today, is my

feeling for the national enthusiasm, with the words to make a cry for the dying China, although my cry,

the voice is very weak, like a dying bird's wail.

Ah! Although I can not actually fight for China, for the Chinese people, but my heart is always

day and night praying for the liberation of the Chinese people from imperialism, the early success! If I still

can survive, then I have to shout for China for one day; if I can not survive - die,

where I bled, or where I buried my bones, perhaps a lovely flower will grow, which

you can regard as my sincere trust! In the breeze, if the flower nods its head up and down,

it can be regarded as my heartfelt salute to the patriots who fought for China's national liberation; if it sways from side to side, it can be regarded as my singing the song of the revolution and encouraging the soldiers to go forward.

This is the first time that I have sung the song of the revolution, and I will be the only one who has ever done so!

Dear friends, don't be pessimistic, don't be discouraged, struggle! Struggle hard and persistently

! Offer all the wisdom and talent of each one to the salvation of the nation! In any case, we will never

let the great and lovely China fall into the filthy hands of imperialism!
