《第一次真好》原文
路过人家的墙下，偶一抬头，看见一棵结实累累的柚子树。一颗颗硕大的黄绿色柚子，沉甸甸垂吊在枝头。这景色不见得很美，却是一幅秋日风情画。
我是个生长在都市，从来不曾享受过田园生活的俗子。除了木瓜树以外，所有结实累累的果树，都只能够在图画、照片、电视和电影中看到。今天第一次看到这棵果实如此丰硕的柚子树，霎时间，心头充满了喜悦与新奇。
第一次真好，第一次的感觉真奇妙。细细回想：在你的生命中，有多少“第一次”值得你低回品味？有多少“第一次”给你留下不可磨灭的印象？
几年前，家中第一次养了一笼十姊妹。当母鸟第一次生下了几颗玲珑剔透，比小指头还小的鸟蛋以后，我和孩子们便眼巴巴地等候小鸟孵出来。有一天，我们正在吃午饭，孩子忽然大叫：“小鸟孵出来了。”我惊喜地走到鸟笼边一看，在鸟巢里面的所谓小鸟，只是两团小小的粉红色肉球，仅仅具有鸟的雏形，身上只有稀疏的几根毛，两只黑黑的眼睛却奇大。第一次看到刚孵出来的雏鸟，但觉它们的样子很难看，竟因此而吃不下饭。可是，等到它们渐渐长大，羽毛渐丰，一切都具体而微以后，我喜爱它们又甚于那些老鸟。
第一次的感觉真奇妙。第一次去露营，第一次动手做饭，第一次坐火车，第一次坐飞机，第一次看见雪，第一次看到自己的作品用铅字印出来……第一次的经验不一定都愉快，但新鲜而刺激，使人回味无穷。
生命中的第一次愈多，生命也就愈益多姿多彩。愿你珍重第一次。
How Nice the First Time
◎Zhou Sushan
When I walked past a household，I happened to see a pomelo tree bearing lots of fruits over my head. Many heavy yellowish green pomelos were hanging from the branches，which formed an autumn picture，though it was not very beautiful.
For a common man like me who was born and brought up in a city，I have never enjoyed the country life. Except for papaya trees，I knew all kinds of fruit trees with fruits by way of pictures or photos，TV programs and movies. Today is the first time that I have seen such an abundant pomelo tree. Instantly，my heart was brimming with joy and novelty.
The first time is so nice and makes you feel so wonderful. Please think about it carefully，how many “first times” are worth recollecting？ How many first times have left an indelible impression on your mind？
Several years ago，we kept a cage of red-billed leithrixes for the first time. When the mother bird laid several dainty and exquisite eggs that were even smaller than our little fingers，both my children and I were eagerly waiting for them to be hatched. One day，when we were having lunch，one of my children shouted，“The baby birds have been hatched.” I was amazed and walked to the cage. The so-called baby birds were just two small pink flash balls in its embryonic form. They only had a few hairs on its body and their eyes were black and too big. It was the first time that I had seen the newly hatched birds，but they were so ugly as to have spoiled my appetite. Nevertheless，as they grew up and fledged，I love them more than the elderly ones.
The feeling of the first time—the first time to camp out，to cook，to take a train，to take an airplane，to see the snow or to see my own writing published—is very marvellous. Although all the first experiences are not always pleasant，they must be fresh，exiting and worth recalling.
The more first times you have in your life，the more colorful life you will have. May you treasure every first time in your life.
