我的家乡在渤海湾的尖尖儿上,那里的人们世代以打渔为生。村东头有一条弯弯曲曲的小路通向海边。每年的汛期,也就是三至五月和十至十二月,这条小路上终日人来人往,笑声不断。奇怪的是,那一大片碱性很重的土地上,长的通常都是些供人们烧柴用的野草灌木,唯有这条小路的两侧却是鲜花盛开蒲草青青,馨香缭绕生机盎然。 My hometown is on the tip of the Bohai Bay, where people make a living by fishing for generations. Tung Tau Tau has a winding path leading to the sea. Every year in the flood season, that is, from March to May and from October to December, this trail is crowded with endless laughter. Strangely enough, on that vast land of heavy alkalinity, the long, usually weedy shrubs used for burning firewood are the only flowers on both sides of the path, full of fragrant flowers.
