我记得我打电话查分的时候高考已经过去将近二十天了,是十七天还是十八天,我记不起来了。那天在下雨,院子里积的水足以将脚面淹没。妈妈,你说,这下子应该凉快许多了,我笑了一下,又好像没笑。我很紧张,你是知道的,我总是很紧张。其实从高考完我就开始紧张了,我以为考试完了我就能睡得着觉了,可我直到那天过去之后还是睡不着。我的眼睛是红色的,血红,像下完雨之后的漫天霞光。我看得出来,你也很紧张,查分的时候虽然你离我们很远,可目光始终在我手上,我能听到你的呼吸声,它沉重,缓慢,带着一股牙膏所特有的矫情的清香味道。你看着我按动电话键,听筒里传出了“嘟??嘟??”的盲音,爸爸的身体开始颤抖,我的胳膊肘贴着他的肚皮,隔着一层布料我感到了他心脏的跳动,它在不断的加快速度,那让我厌烦,我挪动了一下身体,他大概感觉到了我的厌恶,像只受惊的兔子一样跳开了。电话接通了,机械般的女人声音让我输入自己的...

追求一个境界(代序)——谈梁衡的散文最近几年,我在几篇谈散文的文章中,提出了一个看法:在中国散文坛上有两个流派。一个流派主张(或许是大声地主张),散文之妙就在一个“散”字上,信笔写来,松松散散,随随便便,用不着讲什么结构,什么布局,我姑且称此派为“松散派”。另一个是正相反,他们的写作讲究谋篇布局,炼字铸句,我借用杜甫的一句话:“意匠惨淡经营中”,称此派为“经营派”,都是杜撰的名词。我还指出,在中国文学史上,散文大家的传世名篇无一不是惨淡经营的结果。我窃附于“经营派”。我认为,梁衡也属于“经营派”,而且他的“经营”无论思想内容还是艺术表现都非同寻常。即以他的写人物的散文来说,一般都认为,写人物能写到形似,已属不易,而能写到神似者则不啻为上乘。可是梁衡却不以神似为满足,他追求一种更高的水平,异常执着地追求。但是他追求什么呢?我想了好久,也想不出一个恰当的名词。我曾想...

A Ward of the Golden Gateby Bret HartePROLOGUE.In San Francisco the "rainy season" had been making itself areality to the wondering Eastern immigrant. There were short daysof drifting clouds and flying sunshine, and long succeeding nightsof incessant downpour, when the rain rattled on the thin shinglesor drummed on the resounding zinc of pioneer roofs. The shiftingsand-dunes on the outskirts were beaten motionless and sodden bythe onslaught of consecutive storms; the southeast trades brought.
第1节:引论 引论 那许多待解的迷局 人类的命运就是在星球上永远寻找,寻找属于自己的精神家园。 英国历史学家 汤因比 历史终究会记住1988年。 1988在中国历史上可以被看成这样的一个年份:"在此之前,中国民营公司的出现和发展是无意识的,他们更多的是为了让自己免于饥饿。而在此之后,对资产的追求成为了新的主题。那些先觉者们开始把目光放得更远,他们思考企业的归属与命运。日后的事实将证明,这些先觉者最终因为超前的远见得到了回报,而那些回避或者没有思及这一问题的创业者们将付出惨重的代价。 从1978年改革开放"摸着石头过河"开始,在一个拥有13亿人口的大国里,计划经济体制逐渐瓦解,中国变成了一个巨大的试验场。中国开始以不可逆转的姿态向商业社会转型。10年间,在这个试验取得进展的同时,迷茫和躁动也同时在滋长。...
