A SEA STORY
About three years ago,
something terrible happened to
me. That was the day
[1]when it took only six
hours to break my body and
soul . You think I am a very
old man—but I am not. It took
less than a single day to
change my hair from black to
white. 一个海上的故事
大约三年前,我遭遇了
一件可怕的事情。那一
天,我的身体和灵魂只
用了六个小时就支离破
碎了。你以为我是个很
老的人,但我不是。不
到一天的时间,我的头
发就从黑变白了。
