老屋方方正正,样式陈旧古板,被微微泛黄的墙壁隔作不同功用的房间,像个嵌套的火柴盒。客厅里只有一扇开向东边的窗,窗外不远处又是一叠盒子似的楼房,挡去了大半的阳光。于是,在没有阳光照射的多数时间里,昏暗的老屋更显逼仄狭小。儿时觉得,这一方屋子便是整个天地;长大后,却觉得它窄小如囚笼,恨不能张开翅膀飞出去。因此,在搬离老屋的那天,我心中自是欢喜无限。只是,新居虽好,却仍像个盒子。即使阳光满屋,看起来宽敞明亮,从屋子这头儿到那头儿,也不过二十余步便能走完。 The old house is square, old and old-fashioned, separated by slightly yellowed walls for different functions, like a nested matchbox. In the living room, there is only a window opening to the east, and not far from the window is a stack of boxes, blocking most of the sun. Thus, in the absence of sunlight most of the time, dim old houses are even more narrow. When he was a child, he felt that this house was the entire world; when he grew up, he felt that it was as small as a cage and he hated to fly out with wings. Therefore, on the day when I moved away from the old house, I was very happy in my heart. However, although the new home is good, it is still like a box. Even if the house is full of sunlight, it will look bright and bright. From the head of the house to the end of the house, it will take only 20 steps to finish.
