赣江，长江的主要支流之一，是我们江西省的最大河流，也是我们的母亲河。位于长江中下游南岸，源出赣闵边界武夷山西麓，自南向北纵贯全省；长766公里，流域面积83500平方公里，多年平均流量2130立方米每秒，水能理论蕴藏量360万千瓦。赣江通过鄱阳湖与长江相连，是江西省的水运大动脉。
Gan River, one of the main tributaries of the Yangtze River, is the largest river in Jiangxi Province and also our mother river. Located on the south bank of the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River, it originates from the west foot of Mount Wuyi on the border between Jiangxi and Fujian, and runs through the province from south to north; It is 766 kilometers long, with a drainage area of 83500 square kilometers, an average annual flow of 2130 cubic meters per second, and a theoretical hydropower reserve of 3.6 million kilowatts. The Gan River is connected to the Yangtze River through Poyang Lake and is a major waterway artery in Jiangxi Province.
然而今年，江西干旱达70多天，受持续高温少雨及上游来水减少等因素的影响，赣江水位处于历史极低位，新建区的赣江北支流已断流40多天，南昌段也是大面积的河床裸露开裂。
However, this year, the drought in Jiangxi has lasted for more than 70 days. Due to factors such as sustained high temperatures and low rainfall, as well as a decrease in upstream water, the water level of the Gan River is at an extremely low historical level. The northern tributary of the Gan River in the newly-built area has been cut off for more than 40 days, and the Nanchang section of the riverbed is also extensively exposed and cracked.
然而，这里倒成了市民朋友们玩耍的一个去处。
However, this has become a place for citizens to play.
周日下午，我和妹妹都完成了学习任务，爸爸妈妈带着我们来到赣江之滨的沙滩上玩。向远处眺望，左边是跨越赣江南北的“八一大桥”，右边则是雄伟壮丽的“滕王阁”；我们吹拂着秋天的江风，略感微凉；霞光洒在浅黄色的沙滩上，反着微微的金色光泽。
On Sunday afternoon, my sister and I completed our study tasks, and my parents took us to the beach by the Gan River to play. Looking into the distance, on the left is the "Bayi Bridge" that spans the north and south of the Gan River, and on the right is the magnificent "Tengwang Pavilion"; We are blowing the autumn river breeze, feeling a slight coolness; The rosy glow shone on the light yellow beach, reflecting a slight golden luster.
我们在沙滩上挖沙子、堆城堡、打排球……欢笑声惊起了岸边的水鸟，也惊动了水里的小鱼儿。把双脚没进水里，小鱼儿们就围着脚面游来游去，撒欢儿一样吐出晶莹的小泡泡，这种感觉有点像做“鱼疗”，痒痒的。
We dug sand, built castles, played volleyball on the beach... The laughter startled the waterfowl on the shore and the little fish in the water. Putting their feet in the water, the little fish swam around their feet, spitting out sparkling bubbles like they were having fun. This feeling was a bit like doing "fish therapy", itchy.
玩了一阵子，我自己坐在一块大石头上休息，抬头注视着几近干涸的江面，内心不禁有些惆怅。回想起曾经的赣江，“贡水蜿蜒，章江浩瀚；滔滔汇九曲之渊，熠熠挥三春之练”。那是多么浩大雄壮的场面，充满了力量，带来生的希望，更让人心生敬畏之情。
After playing for a while, I sat on a big stone to rest, looking up at the almost dried up river, feeling a little melancholy in my heart. Recalling the Gan River of the past, 'the tribute water meanders, the Zhang River is vast; the surging waters converge into the abyss of nine bends, shining with the practice of three springs'. That was such a grand and majestic scene, full of power, carrying hope for the next life, and even more awe inspiring in people's hearts.
让我们一起为赣江，为我们的母亲河祈祷，希望能下一场透彻而持久的秋雨，为赣江补充力量，让干裂的河床得以滋润，也让我们干燥的心得到濡养。
Let's pray together for the Gan River and our mother river, hoping for a thorough and lasting autumn rain to replenish the strength of the Gan River, nourish the dry riverbed, and nourish our dry hearts.
