课文句子详解
原文
Iron Girl
1 During the 2021 Shanghai Fashion Week, a young, slim and confident woman with an iron leg
drew everyone's attention. Her name was Niu Yu. She lost her right leg in the 2008 Wenchuan
earthquake. She was only 11 years old then.
2 Niu Yu used to be in the school sports team. She loved running. But the disaster broke her
dream. She had to live with an artificial leg. It wasn't comfortable, and her leg often bled.
People's curious eyes made her even more uncomfortable. She always tried to hide her leg under
jeans or dresses.
3 With the support of her family and friends, Niu Yu slowly came out from the shadows. In 2018,
right before her 21st birthday, she decided to stop hiding her leg. To her surprise, she received
lots of encouraging words. She also finished a half marathon in about 4 hours. She completed the
hard 10 - year journey of finding herself again.
4 Now Niu Yu shares her story on social media. She listens to disaster survivors and encourages
them to look forward. In 2023, she carried the torch at the FISU World University Games. "It is a
great honour for me," she said. "But it is also a good chance to show people the power of being
brave."
5 A disaster can bring a lot of pain. But we should always face it with courage. As the writer Nora
Ephron once said: "Above all, be the heroine of your life, not the victim."
译文
铁腿女孩
1. 在 2021 年上海时装周期间,一位年轻、苗条且自信的铁腿女子吸引了众人的目光。她叫
牛钰。 2008 年汶川地震中,她失去了右腿。那时她年仅 11 岁。
2. 牛钰曾是校运动队的一员。她热爱跑步。但这场灾难打破了她的梦想。她不得不依靠假
肢生活。假肢穿着不舒服,她的残肢还经常流血。人们好奇的目光让她更加不自在。她总
是试图把假肢藏在牛仔裤或裙子下面。
3. 在家人和朋友的支持下,牛钰慢慢走出了阴影。 2018 年,就在她 21 岁生日前夕,她决
定不再隐藏自己的假肢。令她惊讶的是,她收到了许多鼓励的话语。她还在约 4 小时内跑
完了半程马拉松。她完成了这艰难的 10 年重拾自我之旅。
4. 如今,牛钰在社交媒体上分享自己的故事。她倾听灾难幸存者的心声,并鼓励他们向前
看。 2023 年,她在世界大学生运动会上担任火炬手。“这对我来说是莫大的荣幸,” 她
说。“但这也是向人们展示勇敢力量的好机会。”
5. 灾难会带来巨大的痛苦。但我们应始终勇敢面对。正如作家诺拉 · 艾芙隆曾说:“最重要
的是,做自己生活中的女主角,而非受 害 者。”
