2. 我觉得中国人所蕴蓄的怨愤已经够多了，自然是受强者的蹂躏所致的。但他们却不很向强者反抗，而反在弱者身上发泄，兵和匪不相争，无枪的百姓却并受兵匪之苦，就是最近便的证据。再露骨地说，怕还可以证明这些人的卑怯。卑怯的人，即使有万丈的愤火，除弱草以外，又能烧掉甚么呢？

2. I feel that the resentment accumulated by the Chinese people is already enough, which is naturally caused by the oppression of the strong. However, they do not rebel against the strong very much, but instead vent their frustrations on the weak. Soldiers and bandits do not compete, and unarmed civilians suffer from both soldiers and bandits, which is a recent evidence. To put it more bluntly, it might still prove the cowardice of these people. Cowards, even if they have a towering passion, can they burn down anything except for weak grass?

12. Young people who love reading can certainly read books beyond their curriculum, such as science-related books if they are studying science, and literature books on the side; if they are studying literature, they should read more science books and see what others are studying and find out what it's all about. In this way, they can have a deeper understanding of others and other matters.

18. "If you kill the present, you also kill the future. The future is the era of descendants." - Lu Xun Children need to be taught by others, and diseases need to be cured by others, even if one is a teacher or a doctor. However, the way to live and deal with things may require one's own judgment, as many so-called effective remedies are often just scraps of paper. - Lu Xun

19. 哪里有天才，我是把别人喝咖啡的工夫都用在了工作上了。

20. 2改造自己，总比禁止别人来得难。 鲁 迅

20. 2 Transforming oneself is always harder than prohibiting others. -- Lu Xun

21. 它的性情就和别的猛兽不同，凡捕食雀鼠，总不肯一口咬死，定要尽情玩弄，放走，又捉住，捉住，又放走，直待自己玩厌了，这才吃下去，颇与人们的幸灾乐祸，慢慢地折磨弱者的坏脾气相同。

21. Its temperament is different from that of other ferocious beasts. When it preys on sparrows and mice, it never wants to kill them with a single bite. It always has to play with them to the fullest, let them go, catch them again, catch them again, let them go again, until it gets tired of playing with them. This is quite similar to people's bad habit of taking pleasure in others' misfortunes and slowly torturing the weak.

25. 1 Writers writing, farmers hoeing, are all ordinary and common things. But if they are photographed, the writer would want to act like a rustic, playing the role of a farmer with a hoe and a bamboo hat; while the farmer, under the willows, would hold a book, pretending to be a student immersed in the deep willows, which would be quite disgusting. Lu Xun should read books with his own thoughts and make his own decisions. Reading dead books is harmful to oneself, and it is harmful to others the moment one speaks; but not reading books is not necessarily good either. Lu Xun...

26. 惟有民魂是值得宝贵的，惟有它发扬起来，中国才有真进步。

26. Only the spirit of the people is truly valuable, and only when it is fully developed can China truly progress.

36. Did I not know earlier that my youth had passed? But I thought that the youth outside of me was still present: stars, moonlight, the rigidly lying butterfly, flowers in the dark, the ominous words of the owl, the blood-crying of the杜鹃, the faintness of laughter, the soaring dance of love. Although it was a melancholic and ethereal youth, it was still youth after all.

37. 巨大的建筑，总是一木一石叠起来，我们何尝做做这一木一石呢？我时常做些零碎事，就是为此。

37. The grand buildings are always constructed one piece of wood and one piece of stone at a time. Why shouldn't we do this one piece of wood and one piece of stone? I often do some trivial things for this very reason.

44. I myself feel like my memory has been scraped with a knife, like the scales of a fish, some of which still remain on my body, while others have fallen into the water.
