以前铁路上只有一辆辆绿皮火车行驶，相较于高铁之下，火车显得既慢又吵还颠簸。而改变这一切的，便是人们常说的——高铁。
Previously, there were only one green skinned train running on the railway. Compared to high-speed trains, trains appeared slow, noisy, and bumpy. And what changed all of this is what people often say - high-speed rail.
以前坐火车
I used to take the train before
七年前，我回老家山东泰安。那时候我挤在火车里的一间不足五平方米的房间里，房间中共有四张讲台大小的床，四张床并排在左右两边，一上一下。但床与床之间空无一物，完全没有遮挡。四个素不相识的家庭大眼瞪小眼，别提有多尴尬了……当时，我睡在上铺。火车一路上都颠簸不停，搞得我一直头昏脑胀，饭也吃不下。一路上，火车一直发出“哐哧哐哧”的响声，全天24小时不间断，就连睡觉也睡不安稳，吵得心烦意乱。但坐慢吞吞的火车也不是没有优点。比起350公里每小时速度的高铁，窗外那模糊成光影的世界，火车那种“走马观花”的速度，应该更受人们欢迎。坐在火车上，望向窗外——一只只鸟雀停留在铁路两旁的树上，在阳光的映照下，鸟的羽毛闪闪发亮，如同鸟儿们都披上了金衣裳一般。坐在火车上，欣赏窗外的风景，似乎也很不错呢！
Seven years ago, I returned to my hometown, Tai'an, Shandong Province. At that time, I was squeezed into a room in the train that was less than five square meters. There were four podium sized beds in the room, arranged side by side on both sides, one up and one down. But there is nothing between the beds, completely unobstructed. Four unfamiliar families stared at each other with big eyes, not to mention how awkward... At that time, I was sleeping on the upper bunk. The train kept bouncing all the way, making me dizzy and unable to eat. Along the way, the train kept making a "clanking clanking clanking" sound, 24 hours a day without interruption, and even sleeping was restless and disturbing. But taking a slow train is not without its advantages. Compared to the high-speed train with a speed of 350 kilometers per hour, the blurred world of light and shadow outside the window, the train's "superficial" speed, should be more popular among people. Sitting on the train, looking out the window - birds perched on the trees on both sides of the railway, their feathers shining brightly in the sunlight, as if they were all dressed in golden clothes. Sitting on the train, enjoying the scenery outside the window, it seems very nice too!
高铁的出现
The emergence of high-speed rail
而祖国的科技人员一直都在刻苦研究新一代列车，他们将车身整体设计成流线型，比火车更能减少空气阻力。虽然车身变合理了，但铁轨仍然是一个样——以前铁轨是存在缝隙的，所以火车行驶起来才会又颠又响。随着科技的发展，铁轨技术的增加，人们终于坐上新一代列车——和谐号！而科研人员还未停下脚步，又在2017年，时速350公里每小时的列车，横空出世，它就是——复兴号！
And the technology personnel of our country have been working hard to study the new generation of trains. They have designed the overall body of the train to be streamlined, which can reduce air resistance more effectively than trains. Although the body of the train has become more reasonable, the rails are still the same - there used to be gaps in the rails, which caused the train to sway and make noise when running. With the development of technology and the increase of rail technology, people have finally boarded the new generation train - Harmony! And researchers have not stopped yet. In 2017, a train with a speed of 350 kilometers per hour emerged, and it is the Fuxing Express!
三。现在坐高铁
Three. Now take the high-speed train
我怀着激动的心情缓步走上复兴号列车。复兴号里面真漂亮啊！天花板上打着紫，红、蓝三种颜色的光。座位也是紫色为主打，白色和淡粉色形成一个个、一条条花纹，又有科技感，又增添了一分古典的淡雅。我迫不及待地坐上座位。靠背是那么柔软，如同母亲的怀抱。座位还能调到180度，从右边翻开一个盖子，从里面能抽出一张小桌板。真是先进啊！过了一会儿，乘务员给了每人一个精致的小盒子。盒子上画着泰山，旁边还写着：中华泰山，天下泰安！打开盒子，里面装着有几包零食和一个书签，书签上也画着泰山，我迫不及待地吃了一包零食——好吃！
I walked slowly onto the Fuxing train with excitement. It's really beautiful inside the Fuxing ship! There are three colors of light shining on the ceiling: purple, red, and blue. The seats are also dominated by purple, with white and light pink forming patterns one by one, giving a sense of technology and adding a touch of classical elegance. I can't wait to sit down. The backrest is so soft, like a mother's embrace. The seat can also be adjusted to 180 degrees, and a lid can be opened from the right to pull out a small table board from inside. That's really advanced! After a while, the flight attendant gave each person a delicate small box. Mount Taishan is painted on the box, and beside it is written: Mount Taishan in China, Tai'an in the world! When I opened the box, there were several packets of snacks and a bookmark on which Mount Taishan was also painted. I couldn't wait to eat a packet of snacks - delicious!
我们现在能坐上高铁，全靠了祖国的无数科研人员辛勤的付出。高铁能让生活更美好，他们也应该得到我们的礼赞！
We are now able to board the high-speed rail thanks to the hard work of countless researchers in our country. High speed rail can make life better, and they should also receive our praise!
